About this Event

Enjoy a free preview of the PBS national series from Dr. Henry Louis Gates Jr., BLACK AND JEWISH AMERICA: AN INTERWOVEN HISTORY with WMHT Public Media on Sunday, February 1st at 2pm in the New York State Museum’s Huxley Theater. In addition, WMHT will present local stories from the Capital Region and a discussion exploring local identity, culture and community. Light refreshments will be available beginning at 1:30pm.

BLACK AND JEWISH AMERICA: AN INTERWOVEN HISTORY is a four-part series tracing the rich, complex relationship between Black Americans and Jewish Americans - defined by solidarity and strained by division. Drawn together by racism and antisemitism, they forged civic and cultural bonds, especially during the civil rights era. The series explores both the challenges and enduring promise of that alliance.

BLACK AND JEWISH AMERICA: AN INTERWOVEN HISTORY will broadcast beginning Tuesday, February 3rd at 9pm ET on WMHT Public Media and the free PBS App.
