History Distilled: Jewish Detroit During Prohibition

The era of prohibition was a time of tremendous growth and secrets in Detroit’s Jewish community. Join archivists Robbie Terman from the Leonard N. Simons Jewish Community Archives and Laura Williams from the Rabbi Leo M. Franklin Archives of Temple Beth El as they share stories of life during prohibition, from developments in the Jewish community to bootlegging and the Purple Gang. Then, take a stroll through a display of photographs and documents and put yourself in the shoes of a Jewish Detroiter during this infamous time.
