Zusammenfassung:Gone to Another Meeting charts the development of the National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW) and its impact on both the Jewish Community in the United States and American Society in general. Founded in 1893 by Hannah Greenebaum Solomon, NCJW provided a conduit through which Jewish women's voices could be heard and brought a Jewish voice to America's women's rights movement. NCJW would come to represent both the modernization and renewal of traditional Jewish womanhood. Through its emphasis on motherhood, its adoption of domestic feminism, and its efforts to carve a distinct Jewish niche in the late 19th-century Progressive social reform movement in the largely Christian world of women's clubs, NCJW was instrumental in defining a uniquely American version of Jewish womanhood.
