SUMMARY:Virtual Walking Tour: The Year of Remembrance of the Heroes of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising Part 1
DESCRIPTION:The first of two live\, virtual tours of the Warsaw Ghetto will focus on the lives of Jews in the city during the Nazi occupation.

It was the largest of the Nazi-established ghettos during World War II\, with a peak estimated population of over 450\,000.

SUMMARY:pleytem tsuzamen: Refugees Together
DESCRIPTION:National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene and the Museum of Jewish Heritage – A Living Memorial to the Holocaust bring together – for two performances only – some of the most renowned Yiddish musicians from across the globe for the American premiere of the new Yiddish theatrical concert pleytem tsuzamen (Refugees Together).  A star-studded cast of master singers from across the world – Ukraine\, Latvia\, Berlin\, England\, and the Americas – will perform a contemporary musical commentary on what it means to be a refugee\, weaving a defiant garment of hope in a threatening and threatened world. “pleytem tsuzamen” (Refugees Together) is a call for solidarity with those who are most threatened. Confronting our current reality\, these new Yiddish songs present a dynamic fusion of traditional forms with the social\, political\, and personal challenges posed by the world today — and they embody the power of music to foster the courage we need to “link arms and take to the streets together against bloodshed and hatred.” Second performance at 6pm.
