  • Summary

  • History often casts Jews as a passive victim, whether it is the pogroms or the Holocaust. A brilliant new book called the Light of Days by Judy Batalion reframes this narrative. But It’s a complex situation that gets tangled up in different Jewish factions, survivors’ guilt and the positioning of women’s narratives more generally.


    Welcome to You Haven’t Heard the Half of It, where we uncover the hidden half of history. Each episode, Esther Freeman and Simon Cole tell stories, which disrupt accepted versions of the past. Make sure you subscribe to the podcast to you don’t miss and episode.
