Special Edition: Yom Ha Shoah

As we celebrate the light-hearted festival of Purim, what is its deadly serious meaning?

On the anniversary of Sputnik, Rabbi Mark Goldsmith reflects on the universal meaning of seeing Earth from space for the first time.

In this Alyth Special Edition podcast members of the North Western Reform Synagogue and of the Holocaust Survivors Centre speak with great power and dignity about their own experiences in Germany, Austria, Poland and France during the Nazi period. We hear their ideas on how the legacy of their memory can be held and passed by the next generations of Jews.
