Germany #1 Jewish Heritage Around the World series with CWB scholar Avi Ben-Hur

Join CWB scholar Avi Ben-Hur on a fascinating look at Jewish heritage in six different countries across Europe and North Africa. We will dedicate two weekly sessions to each country in this twelve-week series. Read about each of the countries below. The German-Jewish epoch lasted from the 1740s till 1933. Within that period German Jews rose from the margins of society to the very heart of Germany’s economic, cultural, academic and even political activity. This seminar will highlight the highs and lows of the German-Jewish experience up until Hitler’s rise to power. We will also attempt to examine the situation in Germany today.
