Jewish Roots Tuesday

The 28th annual IAJGS International Conference on Jewish Genealogy is fast approaching (August 17-22 in Chicago), and Og thought we should all get in the mood with a special Jewish Roots Tuesday. This week, we're featuring a new interview with journalist Schelly Talalay Dardashti, author of the Tracing the Tribe blog. Schelly shares tips about basic Jewish research and talks about her work as a blogger.

We're also showing video from last year's IAJGS conference in Salt Lake City, including interviews with Elise Friedman, coordinator for JewishGen DNA Central, and with Alexander Avraham, director of the Hall of Names at Yad Vashem in Jerusalem.

You'll enjoy interviews with Ron Arons, author of The Jews of Sing Sing, and Joyce Antler, who gives the history of the Jewish mother in You Never Call, You Never Write.

And if you're looking for even more Jewish-themed content, don't forget to check out our Jewish Roots Channel.
