This article explores the issue of ethnic attributions versus options pertaining to Jewishness in Germany. The methodology is a combination of standard ethnographic fieldwork with Berlin-based high-school students before, during and after visits to the Jewish Museum Berlin (JMB) and auto-ethnography detailing and analysing my own experiences in and outside of the research sites. My goal is to illustrate particularities of interactions in sites like the JMB by contrasting the way in which Jewishness is handled in and outside of the standardised research situation. Further, the material points to continuities between anti-Semitism and Islamophobia. My analysis aims to open up further, productive discussion on this point.

La dépendance croissante du secteur privé envers la commandite a eu des conséquences sur la gouvernance des organismes sans but lucratif (OSBL). La recherche traditionnelle sur le financement a pris un angle d'observation essentiellement positif, montrant que les OSBL peuvent trouver des occasions d'influencer les intérêts de leurs bailleurs de fonds de manière à ce qu'ils deviennent plus compatibles avec la mission de l'OSBL. Dans cet article, les auteurs s'inspirent de ce travail en fournissant un examen plus nuancé de l'intermédiaire dans l'OSBL. Plus précisément, les auteurs introduisent une forme négative d'intermédiaire connue sous le nom d'autocensure organisationnelle. En examinant l'autocensure, ils montrent que les OSBL devraient plutôt redéfinir leurs propres buts de manière à attirer les bailleurs de fonds du secteur privé.Increasing reliance on corporate sponsorship has impacted the governance of nonprofit organizations. Traditional research on funding has taken a predominately positive vantage point, expressing that nonprofit organizations may find opportunities to influence their funder's interests such that they become more compatible with the nonprofit organization's mission. In this article, we build upon this work by providing a more nuanced examination of agency in the nonprofit organization. Specifically, we introduce a negative form of agency known as organizational self‐censorship. By examining self‐censorship, we reveal that nonprofit organizations may instead redefine their own goals in order to appeal to private sector funders.
