Professor Janek Wasserman of the University of Alabama History Department explores how exile has shaped European history.
The Stories of Exile program series covers a variety of narratives - most of which take place throughout Europe. Dr. Wasserman speaks to a variety of influences on the exile, migration, diaspora and other "movements" of peoples that have shaped European history. Those who cannot attend in person can live-stream this event on the Hoover Public Library Facebook and YouTube pages .
The Yiddish Book Center’s “Stories of Exile” Reading Groups for Public Libraries is a reading and discussion program to engage teens and adults in thinking about experiences of displacement, migration, and diaspora. In this program, librarians organize reading groups to discuss three books of Yiddish literature in translation, and one book related to the experience of a community served by their library.
