Sisyphus Work: Travel Correspondence from 1911 and 1912
Sisyphus Work contains letters of German Jewish activist Bertha von Pappenheim (1859-1936) written on a trip to the Balkans and Palestine between 1911 and 1912. On her trip, she documented cases of Jewish suffering and Jews involved in white slavery. Writing in 1924, a frustrated Pappenheim notes in the foreword that although she intended these observations
to spur German Jews to action it was clear that “the voices of unknown women would remain ineffective.” The Appendix of Sisyphus includes three reports from Pappenheim’s advocacy for Jewish women and against white slavery. In the first, from 1910, Pappenheim describes personal experiences from her own relief work and “study trips” to illustrate the perspective of Jewish women on white slavery and prostitution. She also articulates that many Jews were traffickers and many Jewish women became “goods.” Pappenheim’s report from a 1913 Congress in London discusses the lack of progress in the fight against white slavery. She also highlights the differences among Catholics, Protestants, and Jews with the issue of trafficking, concluding that inter-confessional cooperation and other roadblocks in the movement were a question of funding. In 1924 meeting minutes, Pappenheim addresses the problem of identity among Jewish representatives. She notes that the representatives participated first in national committees rather than banding together as Jewish representatives in the face of a problem that largely affected
Jews. Conversely, Claude Montefiore from London argues that everyone at the Congress knew of his Jewish identity and therefore he was implicitly recognized as a representative of Jewish interests at the conference. Each attendee gave a short report and Pappenheim suggested that an international Jewish committee against white slavery be founded with its headquarters in London. They also proposed a publication which would address the fight against trafficking as a social and ethical duty.

The writer accused the agents of American imperialism of masterminding the assassinations of prominent Laotians, in direct contravention of the protocols established at the Geneva conference on Laotian neutrality. A neutral and stable Laos was also in Indonesia’s best interests. The American imperialists were in cahoots with the Laotian right-wing, and created imbroglios as excuses for intensifying their intervention in Laotian internal affairs. The events in Laos confirmed the fears of Southeast Asian peoples of the imperialist intrigues that were going on in their own countries. Indonesians, and Indonesian women in particular, must learn from the events in Laos, in order to prevent the imperialists from fomenting trouble through the agents that they had already planted in Indonesia. The Indonesian people supported a neutral Laos, and expressed solidarity with the Laotians, especially the women who fought shoulder to shoulder alongside their menfolk to defend the sovereignty and neutrality of their nation. KEYWORDS: Anti-American; Anti-imperialism;
Indonesia; Indonesian-Laotian relations; Indonesian women; Laos;
Laotian women; Transnational activism; Transnational solidarity
