Comrade Fester, articulating the importance of Helix better than we ever could: "Where else in the world can you cross borders every day, be multilingual every day, feel connected to Jewish culture in this really profound and material way. You can walk those streets and declaim Moyshe Kulbak in the Minsk courtyards. And at the end of the day we would come together and democratically discuss and talk about how we felt about what we’d seen in the day and every day we’d sing as many Yiddish songs as we possibly could. And the thing is, I think that’s what I want my life to be like every day. That’s the kind of life that all these Yiddish activists fought for in Eastern Europe at the time, that Bundists fought for. The best part of it is that it’s made me excited to explore my own city and find out more about how people in Melbourne have resisted together and formed cross-cultural alliances together and built multiculturalism for ourselves. The Helix Project taught me that if we look for those things than we can find them."
