Did those responses affect how we look at our lives and history today? This lecture took place at the 11th annual National Jewish Retreat

Nathan of Hanover and the Ukrainian Rebellion of 1648 (47:09)
Such a clear history of Jews in Western Europe and the Ukraine. Dr. Henry Abramson relates the factors leading up to the devastation of the Chmielnicki massacres. Nathan of Hanover is the historian of record who provides a gripping account of the pogroms and yet is even handed in his recounting of history
Dr. Henry Abramson (90)
