The Sages call Rosh Hashanah Yom HaZikaron, the Day of Remembrance; they also teach that this is the day when we crown God King. In this live class, Rabbi Mike Feuer looks at what memory can teach us about history, and how does the relationship between the two help us crown the king? This class was recorded live as part of the Community Education Elul program.
