No need to pack your bags… just make sure your devices are fully charged for BT’s virtual vacations! Professional tour guides from Keshet Educational Journeys will transport you around the world and back in time to explore the Jewish history, people and culture of three destinations: biblical Jerusalem, “Golden Age” Cordoba and medieval Poland.
Destination: Poland Join Danny Ehrlich for an overview of the story of the Jews of Poland past, present and future as we consider these questions: Why did medieval Poland welcome Jews when almost every other country in Europe was expelling its Jews? How did Jewish life flourish in Poland for more than 1,000 years despite rampant anti-Semitism? What is the truth about Poland vis-a-vis its Jews during the Shoah? What is the status of the Jewish community in Poland today?
Danny Ehrlich is the Educational Director of Keshet Educational Journeys. He coordinates Keshet’s Jewish Heritage Tours in Europe and has been guiding educational journeys to Poland for almost 20 years, including Beth Tfiloh High School’s Natanzon/Taylor Senior Trip to Poland and Israel.
