SUMMARY:Jewish Settlement in North America & the Importance of Mobility
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we explore how American Jewish life has been built\, rebuilt\, uprooted\, and re-rooted over 250+ years\, tracing a story of mobility\, reinvention\, and opportunity from colonial port cities to today’s suburbs and Sunbelt hubs. On January 4\, Pioneers and Port Cities looks at the Sephardic and Ashkenazic families who first established communities in Charleston\, Savannah\, Newport\, New York\, and Philadelphia\, and how they navigated religious freedom\, mercantile networks\, early institutions\, and legal rights in a Protestant-dominated society; on January 11\, Expansion and Upheaval follows the period from the Revolution through the Gilded Age\, including Jewish participation in the Revolution\, German Jewish migration and economic ascent\, Civil War complexities\, and the rise of philanthropy and national Jewish organizations; on January 18\, From the Lower East Side to Main Street explores mass Eastern European immigration (1880–1924)\, urban growth\, labor and tenement life\, the flowering of Yiddish culture\, and the push west and south to places like Boston and beyond; and on January 25\, From Suburbia to Sunbelt surveys 1924–2024—immigration restriction\, postwar suburbanization\, the rise of new Jewish centers outside major cities\, the growth of communities in Los Angeles\, Houston\, Phoenix\, Atlanta\, Boca Raton\, Austin and more\, and what American Jewish mobility may tell us about the next chapter ahead. Featuring Professor Jonathan Sarna of Brandeis University. Presented by the Orange County Community Scholars Program and sponsored by Adult Learning. Questions? Contact Adult Learning.
