TBC Film Club
August 10, 2022 @ 7:30 pm
We will be meeting again for the film club on August 10 and discussing the film "They Came to Stay" available on Kanopy
In the early 20th century, drawn by the promise of America, more than two million eastern European Jews fled poverty and oppression - gravitating to the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Poor and faced with innumerable confusing choices, they struggled to adapt their Jewish traditions to their new lives.
Hope you can join us. If you have any questions regarding the film club, please contact Ria Miller at riahmiller@hotmail.com
