Dan and Lex are joined by Anthropologist Riv-Ellen Prell, author of Prayer and Community: The Havurah in American Judaism. Prell outlines the evolution, impact, and legacy of an important work called The Jewish Catalog, patterned after The Whole Earth Catalog and designed as a "Do-It-Yourself Kit" for living a Jewish life. She also discusses the broader political and social context within which it was published, comparing and contrasting the era of the late 60s and early 70s with the times in which we live today.

Episode 84: The Jewish Catalog, Then and Now - Riv-Ellen Prell

This week, we are joined by Riv-Ellen Prell, a professor at the University of Minnesota, to talk about Jewish summer camping in the United States in the 1950s and 1960s. Riv-Ellen discusses how the activities at these summer camps—from religious practice to outdoor adventuring—were geared toward creating a new kind of Jewish identity in the post-war period.
