The City Without Jews

Mark Souther discusses how Jews dealt with the shift of the “American dream” to the “suburban dream.” The Cleveland State University Associate Professor of History explores how, faced with a rapid departure from the city to the eastern suburbs, they worked to assure the resilience and recentralization of communal life. The Cleveland Jewish History & Public Policy Series is a co-production of the Cleveland Jewish News Foundation, The Laura & Alvin Siegal Lifelong Learning Center at Case Western Reserve University, Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage and Teaching Cleveland Digital.
