Jackson, Miss.—The Goldring/Woldenberg Institute of Southern Jewish Life (ISJL) recently launched a new national blog, “Southern & Jewish.”

Created in partnership with My Jewish Learning, the blog is hosted on the MyJewishLearning.com website. MyJewishLearning.com is a trans-denominational website of Jewish information and education. Offering articles and resources on all aspects of Judaism and Jewish life, the site is geared toward adults of all ages and backgrounds, from the casual reader looking for interesting insights, to non-Jews searching for a better understanding of Jewish culture, to experienced learners wishing to delve deeper into specific topic areas.

The “Southern & Jewish” blog, which is updated multiple times each week, celebrates and shares the Southern Jewish experience. Authored by a team of ISJL staff, topics include everything from roadtrip anecdotes, to personal reflections, to questions and explorations around all things Southern and Jewish.

The direct link to the new blog is: http://www.myjewishlearning.com/blog/southern-and-jewish/.

Established in 2000, the ISJL provides educational and rabbinic services to Southern Jewish communities, preserves the rich history of the Southern Jewish Experience, and offers community engagement opportunities and inclusive cultural programming throughout the organization’s 13-state region.
