Description

"Let's hear some ruach (spirit) in this chadar ochel (dining hall)!" Sentences like this abound at Jewish summer camps around North America, alongside Hebrew songs, games, and signs. Through insightful analysis and engaging writing, Hebrew Infusion explains the origins of this phenomenon and what it says about Jewishness in America.
