Jewish Refugees, the Spanish Inquisition, & Our Founders

What did our "Founding Fathers" learn from Jews fleeing the Spanish Inquisition?
On Jan. 12, the outstanding documentary, "From Inquisition to Religious Freedom: The Story of Jews and the US Constitution" featuring legal scholar/historian, Dr. Isaac Amon, will be shown.
This educational program is free and open to the public. Dr. Amon, Director of Academic Research at the Jewish Heritage Alliance, will join us via Zoom for a Q & A following the film screening.
