- **Event Description**: Yiddish was common in 1925 Brooklyn but police & Jewish leaders didn't approve. How does that compare to Crown Heights 2025? Come find out.About this Event1920s Brownsville was a Yiddish haven for recent immigrants. And upscale members of the established Jewish did their best to “Americanize” these unwashed masses. The Hebrew Educational Society was a key program in this effort. But the attempt to stamp out Yiddish met with… mixed results. In neighboring Crown Heights, we continue to find thriving pockets of Yiddish including yeshivas focusing on the language. Join historian Dr. Daniel Soyer (Fordham) and Raul Rothblatt (Jewish Communities Liaison for the NYC Commission on Human Rights) as we explore how Yiddish has thrived in unexpected Brooklyn places where it wasn’t meant to.Bonus: Yiddish tunes provided by the Rothblatt Family Band.
