Alternative Zions: The Jewish Territorialist Movement

The quest for a homeland, to journey from bondage and persecution, has been inherent to Jewish history for as long as it’s been told. In this episode, join scholars Laura Almagor and Adam Rovner and guest host Devan Schwartz in exploring the Jewish Territorialist Movement. We’ll travel back in time and across the globe to explore proposed alternative homelands for the Jewish people – and what these projects teach us about Jewish history and culture to this very day.
