"The Jewish South" Book Talk

In 1669, the Carolina colony issued the Fundamental Constitutions of Carolina, which offered freedom of worship to “Jews, heathens, and other dissenters,” ushering in an era that would see Jews settle in cities and towns throughout what would become the Confederate States. Shari Rabin’s The Jewish South tells their stories, and those of their descendants and coreligionists who followed, providing the first narrative history of southern Jews. 
 

Rabin will be in conversation about her book with Hasia Diner.
