Jewish Siberia: Russia’s Promised Land

Hosted By: Qesher

Qesher presents a talk exploring 400 years of Jewish life in Siberia, a region often associated with snow, prisons, and exile but rich with unexpected history. The program traces how Jews came to settle across the vast territory, their lives in places like the Jewish Autonomous Region of Birobidzhan, and how Jewish identity endures today in one of the world’s most remote regions.

Host

Qesher

There are Jewish communities all around the globe with their own unique history, culture, places, and most of all, people and stories. All of them different, but sharing so much. The aim of Qesher is to connect these different Jewish traditions, not just to know of each other, but to learn about each other. We believe that there is great value in creating a deeper understanding within the Jewish world and exploring Jewish experiences and identities in all their diversity.
