The World That Was: Jewish Life Before and After the Holocaust

Free
Webinar: July 9, 2026 at 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm EDT

In order to understand what was lost during the Holocaust, we must first understand what existed for over 2,000 years beforehand. In this FREE virtual training, educators will examine the vibrant cultural, religious, and social life that existed across Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East before the rise of Nazism, as well as the ways Jewish individuals and communities rebuilt their lives after the war through primary sources, survivor testimony, photographs, and personal stories.
