First COVID-19 Lockdown (HDOZ)

Throughout the first
lockdown (March-
Mayish) we held a
number of zoom peulot,
chuggim and sadnaot for
the chanichimot in
HDOZ. We also held a
‘Shavua Hashkafah’ for
the bogrimot of HDOZ focusing on Habonim Dror’s Zionism. Here is a

Yom HaShoa on Zoom (HDNA)

On the eve of Yom HaShoa, we were honored to hear the testimony
of Holocaust survivor Rachel Roth, who resisted against the Nazis in
the Warsaw Ghetto and went on to survive multiple concentration
camps. Hundreds of movement members and alumni from across
North America and Israel
joined Rachel, her family,
and Dr. Lori Weintrob,
Director of the Holocaust
Education and
Programming Center at
Wagner College, to hear
Rachel’s story and learn
about the history of
Jewish resistance .
