The Massachusetts Antisemitism Synagogue Task Force presents “The Farhud: What was it?”
During the Holocaust, the Arab-Nazi alliance sparked the bloody June 1-2, 1941 pogrom of kiiling and looting in Baghdad. It set the stage for the later mass expulsion of 850,000 Jews from Arab countries. Why did it happen? Can it happen here?
In honor of Mizrahi Jewish Heritage Month, Massachusetts Antisemitism Synagogue Task Force presents The Farhud: What was it? with acclaimed bestselling historian Edwin Black, author of IBM and the Holocaust and The Farhud, confronts the issue head on—and takes your questions, including can it happen here?
