Recs if you like Uncomfortable Conversations with a Jew...

History repeats, and most of us need an education.

Includes classics on American history & contemporary looks at the many -ism’s that consume us. Some microhistories are also thrown in. See them as case studies.

This list is by no means exhaustive. Feel free to comment other titles!

Academic and non-academic non-fiction by Jewish authors about Jewish topics, with an emphasis on content outside the US, about non-Ashkenazi minhagim, Jews of colour, and historical subjects other than the Shoah. A few books may have non-Jewish co-authors or authors, but I'll try to limit them as much as possible.

I've been meaning to get into more political books lately, mostly surrounding racism, sexism, and the Jews and Palestinians because of the genocide going right now and thought other people might be the same! Let me know if there are any books I should add or remove since I'm just getting into this topic!

A collection of books exploring Jewish history, identity, and resilience in today’s world.
