These oral history interviews were originally recorded as part of an oral history project with the Council of American Jewish Museums called "Collecting These Times: American Jewish Experiences of the Pandemic." Oral histories were recorded between June 2021 and May 2022 and aimed to document the stories of Jewish individuals and institutions as they lived through the pandemic, social justice protests, and the 2020 election year. Interviews were conducted with rabbis, cantors, doctors, parents, teachers, essential workers, journalists, and JTS administrators, students, and faculty.
