Webinars in American Jewish History

The Jacob Rader Marcus Center of the American Jewish Archives is proud to present webinars on the history of American Jewry. Knowledge and material gleaned from these 1-hour sessions can be easily adapted for use in sermons and classes. It is our intention to provide participants with a document that they will be able to use in their own teaching.
