About

A channel dedicated to putting Jewish history back in the context of world history. New videos on Fridays. In addition to the main history videos, I also have two limited series: Jewish History on the Road, in which I visit historical Jewish sites, and Jewish History on the Plate, in which I discuss the histories of traditional Jewish foods.
