At thirty-six, Sarah Hurwitz attended an intro to Judaism class and was astonished. Where had this Judaism been all her life? And why had her Jewish identity been apologies to avoid causing discomfort? Seeking answers, she looked back in time and found how the pervasiveness of antisemitism caused Jewish people to erase their identities and traditions to be accepted and safe. In this book, Hurwitz documents her quest to take back her Jewish identity.
