FROM HAVEN TO HOME
It was really interesting to go to the exhibit and learn about Jewish history. I learned a lot about Jewish history. The most interesting thing I learned about iconic Jewish people was Hank Greenburg. He was a baseball player for Detroit in the 1930’s, during the time that Adolf Hitler was planning his rein of terror over Jews. He hit 58 home runs one season, coming within two home runs of the record for most home runs hit in a season. I also learned about the hardest time for the Jewish people, the rein of Adolf Hitler. World War II was the time were approximately 200,000 Jews found refuge in the U.S. Jewish people also had very different ideas about the civil war. The Jews normally supported the place they lived in. I found it interesting that the Jews were split over the civil war. I thought that they would all support the North and Abraham Lincoln. There are a lot of modern and famous Jewish people. Some of those people include Dr. Seuss and Jerry Seinfeld.
