Beyond the Almost Promised Land: A Conversation with Hasia Diner

How does the history of Jewish advocacy on behalf of Black citizens shape how we advance racial justice today? Hasia Diner’s book, In the Almost Promised Land: American Jews and Blacks, 1915-1935, was written amidst the political strife of the late 1970s and remains a seminal work of scholarship on Jewish involvement in the early Civil Rights movement. Join us for a lively and informative two-part interview of Hasia Diner by Yiddish performer Anthony Mordechai Tzvi Russell.
