Sunday, January 25th 7:00pm - CSI

They were fleeing poverty, famine, religious persecution, bleak futures without education, pogroms and more.  Have you ever asked yourself… “How did they travel hundreds of miles over land to get from their towns to various ports and what was sailing in steerage really like?” Often, our ancestors never spoke of this part of the arduous journey. Leah Kaplan takes you on her grandmother's journey, helping us understand what so many endured.  Click here to register.
