Listen "TJS S5E21 American Jewry circa 1984"
Episode Synopsis
As we circle in toward the end of season five, it is time to check back in with American Jewry. The Eighties were a time of economic and social security for the Jews of the US, and the overall growth of their religious communities was boosted by a surprise source - the kollel. It was a decade in which the assumption that Jews vote Democrat was first really challenged, and in which the early rumblings of antisemitism in the public sphere could be felt once more.
