Adult Education presents - “The Levys of Monticello”, including a Zoom Q&A with the Director, Steven Pressman (past event)
In support of Black History Month, Salon Series is featuring this unique film.
This film is part of our “Salon Series” - join fellow City Shul’ers for original talks to feed your Jewish soul.
Film Synopsis: When Thomas Jefferson died in 1826, he left behind a mountain of personal debt, which forced his heirs to sell his beloved Monticello home and all of its possessions. The Levys of Monticello is a documentary film that tells the little-known story of the Levy family, which owned and carefully preserved Monticello for nearly a century – far longer than Jefferson or his descendants. The remarkable story of the Levy family also intersects with the rise of antisemitism that runs throughout the course of American history.
