This free Zoom event, "An Old Faith in the New World: The History of American Judiasm" will be hosted by Jonathan Sarna of Brandeis University and will be the first in a series of three discussions of American Judiasm.

Jonathan Sarna is an acclaimed author who wrote the bestselling book on the subject, " American Judiasm: A History."
His presentation will focus from 1654 to the present. Beginning in the colonial era, Sarna recounts the dynamic story of people struggling to be Americans and Jews. He shows how each generation of American Jews has had to wrestle anew with the question of whether its own children and grandchildren will remain Jewish. Bringing the story down to the present, he illustrates how the past can both inform and inspire.
