Steven Zipperstein, Koshland Professor in Jewish Culture and History at Stanford, has published widely on the history of Russian Jewry and has taught at universities in Russia, England, France and elsewhere. His lecture will explore the many ways in which popular memory – regarding daily life, family, sexuality, politics, and Jewish/non-Jewish relations – differ from how historians see the past.

The Oshman Family JCC is hosting a Centropa exhibition called "Jewish Witness to a Polish Century," which uses 21st-century technologies to connect us to 20th-century Jewish history. For more information, visit www.centropa.org.
