Yiddish Language and Song: A Collision with Zionism and the Birth of Israel

February 19th, 2008 | Category: Jewish Music

I was catching up on some Yiddish video’s that afternoon and ran into that fascinating documentary interview with Yiddish culture archivist, Frank Krasnowsky by PDXJustice.Org. I’ve only seen the first 10 minutes or so, but it bounces back and forth amoung Yiddish protest music, socialism and anarchism, and US and Israeli history. Great stuff. (Warning…that is a lengthy GoogleVideo. You can see a 10 minute excerpt at YouTube.com)
