dc.description.abstractOral history interview with Rabbi Zalman Teichtal conducted by Timothy Miller in Lawrence, Kansas, on December 2, 2009. In this interview, Rabbi Teichtal describes his experiences growing up Jewish in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. He describes how his involvement with the Chabad movement within the Hasidic tradition brought him to live in Lawrence, Kansas. He discusses anti-Semitism both in the Midwest and in New York. He describes religious education within the Chabad movement, and the challenge of raising children as Jews living in Kansas. He discusses Kosher food, and where to find it in Kansas. He describes the process of dating and choosing a marriage partner within the Chabad community. He also addresses the process of a non-Jewish person converting to Judaism. This interview was conducted for the Religion in Kansas course taught at the University of Kansas by Dr. Timothy Miller in the fall of 2009.
