Late response, but the question around 49:00 it could be the town of Biecz they're asking about, it's in southeastern Poland, market square looks like this these days: www.google.se/maps/@49.7301478,21.2495061,3a,60y,349.52h,79.53t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sRI1xUyg5AYnaCSsYszF0rQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=sv&coh=205409&entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTAwMS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

When I studied in Cracow a bit more than 20 years ago I was out in town during All Saints Day, when the cemeteries are full of candles which you can see from afar. Next to one of the largest Christian cemeteries is an old worn down jewish cemetery (that has since been largely restored). But there were some candles there as well. So next to the one cemetery absolutely full of candlelight everywhere there was this other place with just some scattered candles. It turned out there were some local people who went there and put candles on old jewish graves at random, not being in any way related to the people resting there, but having the feeling that the holiday is for rememberance of all people that once lived there. So it was described to me by local friends of mine. It was sad and heart warming at the same time to see that largely deserted cemetery, but at least some people did what they could to keep the place in some order. Again, this was more than 20 years ago, as the lecturer here says, since then this movement has become much more widespread.

wonderful story and video, the end brought tears to my eyes❤

a VERY GOOD TRANSLATION OF A YIZKOR BOOK IS THE ONE FOR BRANSK, THE TOWN THAT WAS THE SUBJECT OF THE PBS PROGRAM SHTETL (WHICH CAN BE WATCHED ON TH-cam).

I am still learning of the vejigante mask and it's history. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I just did a painting on this subject because I wanted to touch on it's roots.

A fabulous discussion. I loved the 1972 film and now I can't wait to go see the new musical version!

Excellent program, thank you.

Most interesting and enjoyable. Thank you.

The 1938 film Alexander's Ragtime Band was a huge hit!

Always was written for his second wife about a decade later. After Dorothy's death he wrote When I Lost You, which was his first ballad and was hugely successful.

Fun Fact: Ira Gershwin from the iconic Jewish music writing team the Gershwin brothers was born and raised on that very street just feet away from this Synagogue.

If I am understanding Sr. Juan's comment correctly, Sr. Rangel might be mistaken about one of the historical facts he shares. But overall, I think this interview is still nicely done. In the end, Sr. Rangel cares about art, tradition and helping to educate others. If he's incorrect on something, then politely clarify in the comments and mention a source that would verify it. Don't call most of his interview "bs."

Rabbi Avraham Ahron Yudelovitch was Rabbi of the synagogue for over 20 years, he wrote many Seforim. His son, Rabbi Chaim Morim Yood was also a rabbi in New York.

Hey Scott Brevda, KV people Eddie Cantor, Ira Gershwin and Boss Tweed!! Not even close geographically. You could have said Jimmy Durante who lived at 80 Catherine Street about 30 years before where 16 Monroe was later constructed. Here, to name a few are, novelists Leonard Michaels, Evan Hunter (Sal Lombino), Mark Toby (Courtship of Eddie's father) and literary scholars: Edmund L. Epstein and Heinz Norden, Mazie Gordon, aka "The Queen of the Bowery," opera singer Judith Raskin, actors Nehemiah Persoff and Hayden Rorke, screenwriters Harry Essex, Justus Addis and Paddy Chayefsky (very briefly), musicians Milton Okun, Ted Paley and Milton Rumshinsky, poet Henry Zolinsky, songwriter Joseph Darion (Man of La Mancha), artists Harold Baumbach and Joseph Solman, photographer Rebecca Lepkoff, Harry Liebowitz, the coach of the LMRC little league team, Nancy Bueller, the most beautiful girl who ever attended PS 177, Harvard economist Martin Weitzman, philosopher Morton White, Harry Hom Dow, who in 1929 became the first Asian-American admitted to practice law in Massachusetts, mobsters Socks Lanza, Richard Cantarella, Lefty Ruggiero and Anthony Mirra, politicians Duke Viggiano, Assemblyman John Lamula, Judge Leonard Sandler, Judge Pat Piccariello and Judge Vincent Lupiano, former members of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade and later OSS agents in WW2 Milton Felsen (later the film producer of Saturday Night Fever), Gerald Cook, Harry Milton and Irving Goff (he supposedly saved Hemiongway's life in Spain). And of course, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg and their sons Michael and Robert Meeropol

I love your story! My daughter's grandmother is Puerto Rican, and I decided to ask her what she knew about the Vejigante mask, especially since she was born near Ponce. Thank you for helping others make connections and learn about culture.

he is talking allot of bs, btw people thats not the true history it come from the catholic church actually...

Much interesting and important, That's history!

I would love to meet Mr Rangel as im on my journey learning this art in the diaspora. Priceless knowledge and artistry.

Love it

🙈🙉

that closing line was so beautifully said!!!

✡️ The good old days maybe gone but not forgotten

Awesome. I need to attend this next year.

excellent works

i saw other video and they were just omg why won't this have so many likes and plus you only have 229 views and im sorry but its the truth

To clarify the caretas are from Spain but Puerto Rico has implemented their own style to them. It was originally to celebrate St. James who helped expell muslims from Spain. The monsters represent the devil but also subliminally represent the moorish muslims that were expelled.

Ha Greg great Job. Nice to see you still play...I hope you remember me. I was just talking to Spencer Odems about South High and The Music Room and he informed me about your TH-cam Videos. Keep up the good work George would be proud of you

Beautiful architecture and history

Great video! I’m not a Jew. But I love to see great religious buildings. It’s sad to see so many churches and religious houses going into disrepair lately and losing members to atheism. This is a great project and wow, what results.

Read the book years ago in a world literature class. This video is truly a great asset to anyone who has read the book.

Valioso y cultural.

Ayyyyy being litterly chinese and Puretorican 🔥🔥 this video fire and informative.

Oh! I enjoyed this so much!!!!

*👍класс и привет от тренера по футболу!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*

Thank you Alix, June and Jo. This book and video has become a childhood dream come true. As an adult I was not surprised by the amount and extent to which these books and characters have shaped my life, choices and family, but I was stunned by the parallels to real people and even more shocked as to the origins of those traits. I was so thrilled to learn more about Sydney's mother. As a child I longed for a family of sisters in matching dresses. I have spent time and effort with the aesthetics of matchings outfits among girls and boys, and I was thrilled to learn more about Cilly. I do struggle with the realization that a big family from a mother's perspective does not seem quite as fun as being one of the siblings. Even when siblings do not fight, motherhood is more than I imagined as a young reader. I recently opened my own childhood memory box, and among my favorite pictures and essays were many written in elementary school about the way these books have shaped my life. I was a Jewish girl in a predominantly non-Jewish public school, and a fifth grade teacher and colleague mentioned to my father that she thought I would enjoy these books. I was absolutely fascinated to learn about the Bar Mitzvah papercut. I wonder what kind of celebrations occurred for the other bat and bar mitzvahs in the family? I wonder did the Brenner sisters ever get their clothing mixed up by accident? We do family wash and I seem to be the only one able to discern one child's clothing from another's. I have labelled the clothes with the dot system, tied colored strings on hangers, but more than once a child has worn one of their shoes and one of their siblings, or someone else's coat, the list goes on. Anyone else in my boat? And then, when you have teenage children matching becomes more difficult, even with sewing skills. The struggle to get the kids dressed for synagogue still takes an extremely long time. Cilly had this down to a science! (Where are your Shabbos shoes? I want to wear my crocs, you can not wear all red, no pants under your dress, I don't want to wear that dress. #everyweek) It is really unreal to find these characters come to life like I knew them all along! I haven't finished the book but I noticed the name Schiner. Is it really true about eating somebody else's supper? The pancake? Did Sarah get her ears re-pierced? Is Charlotte's memoir published anywhere? Are there any more pictures? Is there a map with the All-of-a Kind places marked for those of us that missed the tour? Are there any videos or public audio recordings of these sisters? Ella singing? I am just dying inside but I am an inner city public school music teacher, and even with 400 students at the end of the day I have bus duty and I always line the students up by height. Every time I see a picture from the book I am like... ohhhh this is why I am the way I am. Anyone else in my boat? I mean, does anyone else have a large hair bow collection, that is not optional? I am dying to know how did Cilly get her children to practice piano every day without a fuss? Please share these plays and musical scores!!!!!!!!! What was it like to have these women as aunts? Were they Tantas, like Tanta Henny? Please share more about Henny! She is a stitch! Did the girls really call their parents Mama and Papa or did they use German words? I always imagined this family spoke Yiddish so this was the biggest surprise to me! I remember being pregnant with my oldest daughter... how could you have an oldest daughter, and not name her Ella? I didn't but luckily Eleanor is her middle name from my husband's family, so we have possibility. Her name is Kreina, and I so often see so many similarities with Ella.

I was there in 2008. A small group of people was visiting. After the tour every visitor was asked how they arrived in america. Everybody was jewish and had a vary scary story. I was the only non jew, i could not believe the lack of interest in such an important place.

Thank you for publishing the discussion. I'm currently writing my thesis on Yu Hua's novel, To Live, and your commentaries gave me a whole new perspective and helped me reach the deeper meaning behind Yu Hua's words. Thank you!

Historical recordings of the Jewish daily forward

I’m looking for recordings of the Jewish deli forward in the Original Yiddish

What about the skeleton?

This is very beautiful ....I love it

I love having a face to put with your name! Thank you for your demo and your encouragement.

Here is the group Hot Pastromi performing at the historical and beautiful Eldrige Synagogue on the Lower East Side in New York City. This is a popular Yiddish folk song about a suitor who asks his girl three questions to see whether she is the right one for him. The words are in Yiddish, and unfortunately, the recording isn't as clear as it should be, but for those of us who sang it in our youth, it brings back memories.
