Ghosts of a Holy War: 1929 and the Roots of the Arab/Israeli Conflict
Hosted By: Haberman Institute
The Haberman Institute for Jewish Studies presents a discussion with journalist and author Yardena Schwartz on her book “Ghosts of a Holy War: The 1929 Massacre in Palestine That Ignited the Arab-Israeli Conflict.” Sparked by the discovery of century-old letters in a Memphis attic, the book uncovers the story of an American Jew killed in the Hebron massacre and explores its lasting impact on the conflict. Through archival material, interviews, and historical context, Schwartz connects this little-known event to the present, including the aftermath of October 7, 2023, and the ongoing struggle for peace.
