SUMMARY:Not Tevia’s Shtetl: The Real Story of our Ancestral Towns and What’s Happening There Today
DESCRIPTION:Jews around the world can trace their roots to small towns in Eastern Europe. Before they made the leap to a big shtot (city) they lived for centuries in shtetls. These places have become shrouded in myth and clouded by memories. Join us for an adventure into the real stories of the towns where our ancestors fell in love\, experienced frustration\, and tried to get ahead. At the end we’ll talk about what remains of these hallowed places and what’s being done to preserve Jewish heritage in places where Jews are absent. We will welcome Zachary Mazur to BZBI for this lecture and Q & A session. \nRegistration is free and there is a suggested $10 donation for the cost of security\, click here to register! \nZachary Mazur earned his PhD at Yale University where he studied under Professor Timothy Snyder. He’s the author of numerous articles and will soon publish a book on Jews\, Ukrainians and Poles in Poland’s economy during the 1920s-30s. He is currently the Senior Historian at the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews in Warsaw.
