Story: Tradition: Roles in Society
Summary: This story brings to mind the opening scenes of "Fiddler on the Roof" where we're reintroduced to Tevye the dairyman and the character of the Fiddler. It establishes the central tension in the story between tradition and change. The video in this segment includes the traditional roles of men, women, and children in the fictional town of Anatevka. Use this story as a trigger to talk about traditional occupations and stereotypes in the small Russian village of Anatevka. What do we recall about our childhood memories of adulthood? What can we remember about the roles of men and women in our family stories? How have roles, especially gender roles, changed?
