Ordinary Jews. Talking.
Hosted by Liora Alschuler, Ordinary Jews. Talking. features conversations on being Jewish in the world today.
S3 Ep 4: Liora talks with Yuval Rozanis, whose father’s family traces back to the town of Castallvi de Rosanes in the 1300s, and then migrated to Italy and Bulgaria, arriving in Mandate Palestine in 1945. He is the first Israeli “ordinary Jew” to be interviewed on the podcast, speaking about the role of the kibbutz, religion, and the State itself – the one he grew up with and the one he lives in today.
