The Old Country in 60s Philadelphia: Row Homes and Jewish Delis

Описание к видео The Old Country in 60s Philadelphia: Row Homes and Jewish Delis

Elissa Samberg fondly remembers the closeness of the Philadelphia row homes in the 1960s and her neighborhood of Jewish immigrants just north of Philadelphia in the liminal space between the Old Country tradition and American assimilation. She describes this childhood experience through the lens of grocery shopping with her grandparents - her hand held tight by her grandfather, Elissa would visit Jewish delis every Saturday for nova lox on a bagel while her grandmother was getting her hair done.
