I SURVIVED JEWISH HISTORY Schedule of Spring 2020 Lectures

Good morning students of Jewish History!

I’m really excited about the I SURVIVED JEWISH HISTORY Spring Semester of Jewish History Lectures beginning later this month. Please check the flyer for the live lectures with our New York audience (please join us if you’re in town!). Here’s a tentative syllabus of the online dates and times for the release of those lectures.

The Live Lectures are free and open to the public. YouTube Members (Students, Researchers, and Colleagues) will receive Advance Viewing privileges of the rough cut (their comments will help me edit out the bad jokes). The Online Premiere (something new for me) will be open to the broader community, and I plan to participate in the real-time chat session with viewers during the Premieres.

Please save these dates!
