RJD Daffodil Project

The Russian-speaking Jewish Division in partnership with Holocaust Community Services CJE SeniorLife and JCC Chicago invite you to participate in The Daffodil Project.

The Daffodil Project will feature a memorial garden dedication and blessing, a Holocaust survivors story, planting a daffodil bulb, and craft for children to decorate the sukkah. Light refreshments will be served.

The Daffodil Project aspires to build a worldwide Living Holocaust Memorial by planting 1.5 million daffodils in memory of the 1.5 million children who were murdered during the Holocaust and in support for children suffering in humanitarian crises around the world. The yellow daffodil bloom is reminiscent of the yellow star that Jews were forced to wear during the Holocaust. The daffodils are symbolic because they are resilient and return with a burst of color each spring, signifying hope, renewal and beauty.

Please register by October 1st.

By registering for this program, I attest that all registrants age 5 or older have completed their initial series of COVID 19 vaccinations.

Sukkot Family Service and Pizza Dinner

Celebrate fall by joining us for our free, all-ages event in our Sukkah to celebrate the harvest festival of Sukkot. Rabbi Adam Chalom will lead a brief service - you’ll have a chance to hold the lulav branches and etrog fruit - and sing along with the guitar.

We will have hands-on craft activities for children, who can hang their creations in our Sukkah or take them home.

Please bring chairs or blankets to sit in and around our sukkah (and there is a rain plan on-site!).

Our celebration then moves indoors for a pizza dinner, including salad, fruit and dessert (gluten-free options available). The dinner is $5 per-person (children 5 and under are free).

Community Days NW Suburbs: Award-winning Author of AN AFFAIR OF SPIES and DEFENDING BRITTA STEIN

From JCC Chicago & CJE Senior Life with free light kosher-style lunch.

Ronald H. Balson, 2018 National Jewish Book Award winner and best-selling author, discusses AN AFFAIR OF SPIES and DEFENDING BRITTA STEIN

An Affair of Spies: Nathan Silverman grew up in Berlin in the 1920s, the son of a homemaker and a theoretical physicist. After his uncle is arrested in Kristallnacht, he leaves Germany for New York City with only his mother’s ring to sell for survival. Three years later, while attending an evening course at Columbia, Nathan notices a recruitment poster on a university wall. To his surprise, he is quickly selected for a special assignment – trained as a spy and ordered to report to the mysterious Manhattan Project. Nathan’s mission is to return to Berlin and smuggle out a German theoretical physicist who hopes to defect, and who was a friend of his father’s.

Defending Britta Stein is a story of bravery, betrayal, and redemption—from Ronald H. Balson, the winner of the National Jewish Book Award

Defending Britta Stein: Chicago, 2018: Ole Henryks, a popular restauranteur, is set to be honored by the Danish/American Association for his many civic and charitable contributions. Frequently appearing on local TV, he is well known for his actions in Nazi-occupied Denmark during World War II—most consider him a hero.

Britta Stein, however, does not. The ninety-year-old Chicago woman levels public accusations against Henryks by spray-painting “Coward,” “Traitor,” “Collaborator,” and “War Criminal” on the walls of his restaurant. Mrs. Stein is ultimately taken into custody and charged with criminal defacement of property. She also becomes the target of a bitter lawsuit filed by Henryks and his son, accusing her of defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Attorney Catherine Lockhart, though hesitant at first, agrees t

The Einsatzgruppen Trial: The Biggest Murder Trial in History

Following the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg in 1945, the United States conducted twelve additional trials against other significant members of the Nazi regime. One of these trials involved 24 defendants of the notorious mobile killing units (Einsatzgruppen) for their role in murdering Jews, Communists, and countless others during Nazi Germany’s campaign against the Soviet Union.

Join Illinois Holocaust Museum with John Geiringer, a partner at Barack Ferrazzano law firm and a Co-Director of the Center for National Security and Human Rights Law at Chicago-Kent School of Law, as he delivers a compelling account of how the prosecution and defense responded to the challenge of prosecuting mass murder in a world where the concept of “genocide” was still in flux. He will also examine the men who perpetrated some of the most brutal crimes of the Holocaust, and explore lessons we can learn from the Trials today.
1.25 Illinois professional responsibility credit available for attorneys.
