Join Robbie for another delightful series! This time we are re-opening the vault of stories that tell the history of Jewish Detroit. Archivist Robbie Terman will share tales of the past that make us the community we are today, including early Jews in Detroit, migration out of the city, Jewish businesspeople, Jewish cemeteries, social clubs and synagogues. All this plus much more as we visit nostalgic Detroit and weave together some of Robbie’s past class information with new stories.
