PRX Emancipates Listening

Hi friend of PRX,

Sitting in the movie, we forgot for a moment that Daniel Day Lewis hadn’t actually become Abe Lincoln.

Might we suggest that instead of going to the theatre or making legislative sausage, Mr. Lincoln could have spent a few moments listening to, oh, young producers gathered in his native Illinois at Third Coast, or enjoying music familiar to his time. Maybe learning more about Native Americans. Or the deep lessons from the Civil War.

Listen like Lincoln,
John

Hanukkah

Dec. 8-16

Three 12-year-olds — a Muslim, Orthodox Jew, and evangelical Christian — talk about their religion in My God.

Hanukkah has become the pinnacle of assimilation for many. A former Orthodox Jew explains (while cooking latkes) how this 2,000-year-old struggle over assimilation has affected her life.
Mystical tales, teachings, and sacred Jewish music from around the world in The Kabbalah of Chanukah.

More in our Hanukkah picks and Jewish History picks.
