Engaging young students with history can be challenging. Textbook narratives often fail to capture the imagination of young learners or lack the dynamism that history inherently possesses. That's where digitized historical newspapers found in the Community History Archives can play a role. They bring history alive in a tangible, relatable, and interactive way, a far cry from the detached and often monotonous recital of textbook narratives. https://zurl.co/SPY7

My new book on post-October 7 American Judaism is now available. I focus on the renewal of Jewish peoplehood; how to be tribal but not tribalistic; obligation; how Judaism became a counterculture; “soft” antisemitism, and even Leonard Cohen, Paul Simon and Bob Dylan as Jewish voices. I hope you’ll read it and let me know what you think — and invite me to address your community on the vital topics in the book. https://lnkd.in/gwbsYTX6
