The Council of American Jewish Museums knows this is a critical time to be collecting the Jewish experience in America. It is a time in which Jewish life is responsive and changing in the face of the pandemic – with so many shifts in society, home life, work, education, ritual, and Jewish community. CAJM has collected oral histories about the Jewish experience of the pandemic, some of which are publicly available on this website.
CAJM is grateful to these organizations that have here shared their recordings from the pandemic period:
- The Breman Museum
- Council of American Jewish Museums
- Institute for Southern Jewish Life
- Iowa Jewish Historical Society
- Jewish Museum of Florida/FIU
- Jewish Theological Seminary Library
- Museum of the Southern Jewish Experience
- Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education
- Vaad Refuah
Thank You to the Chronicling Funder Collaborative for making this work possible:
