A Walk Through Odessa's Jewish Heritage
The most influential Jewish citizens in Odessa were the Brodsky, Rafalovic and Efrussi families. These people began as traders, money lenders and tailors before becoming grain traders. Olga walked us by their former palatial mansions and the Brodsky Synagogue, the first Reformed Synagogue and the first with an organ!
The Synagogue was turned into city archives by the Bolsheviks, and still remains such. If the shelves were removed, the building would probably collapse. From there to an area where Issak Babel, the famous Russian writer once lived. Babel was tortured and shot by the Bolsheviks after confessing to being a terrorist and spy in 1940.

The Jewish community of Brody (district city in Lviv region of western Ukraine) was one of the oldest and most well-known Jewish communities in the western part of Ukraine (and formerly in Austrian Empire / Poland up to 1939). Jewish community of Brody perished in the Holocaust in 1942–1943 and is no more today. During the 19th century, Brody was the second largest city in East Galicia (after Lviv (Lemberg)), with the highest proportion of the Jewish population (88%) among Eastern European cities.

Ukraine: Famous Yiddish writer's statue vandalised with swastikas in Kiev
Subscribe to our channel! rupt.ly/subscribe
Monument in honour of prominent Yiddish author and playwright Sholem Aleichem, located across from the Brodsky Synagogue in central Kiev, was defaced with swastikas on Monday.
Rabbi Joseph Azman said that the incident was a provocation not only against Ukraine's Jewish community but also against the country itself.
Azman added it was not the first time that there have been anti-Semitic actions in the area where the synagogue is located.
The religious leader also expressed his hope that Ukraine’s law enforcement will find the people who did this and punish them.
Kiev police has opened a criminal investigation into the vandalism.

Karen Roekard in the Great Synagogue in Zolkiew, Ukraine 2005
My aunt Etta Rosenfeld Rokart zl married a man from Zolkiew, a town in Ukraine 10 kilometers from her mother's family's town Rawa Ruska, and ~30 kilometers from her father's family town of Belz.This is also the town into which Reb Zalman Schachter-Shalomi zl was born.
During the course of my research, I spent a total of several months in Poland and Ukraine. Because the Great Synagogue in Zolkiew was a synagogue where members of my family are likely to have davenned (prayed) and because it is a twin of the destroyed great shul in Belz, which was my father's family's shul, I wanted to go into it, even though it is very ruined and locked up.
Although I was told that this would be very difficult, if not impossible to get in, Alex Dunai, my very able guide, was able to get me in three times.The first time i was in awe and determined to get in with a video camera because i knew i wanted to sing, to daaven, to pray in it and to have it recorded. I knew that this never would have happened had life continued as it was pre-WWII and had i grown up in that neighborhood. But it didn't and I didn't and I didn't know if anyone else ever would sing and record themselves. The energy inside and the acoustics were amazing.
Alex got me in a second time with a video camera but when we got back to Lviv, we saw that the recorder hadn't worked properly. we went back again early in the morning the next day, the day I was leaving and thankfully, it all worked.
When I heard that Reb Zalman zl was a native son of Zolkiew, I made this video for him which i just found. The quality doesn't seem great. If I find the original, I will upload it instead.

- 12:39 Odesa was not a historic homeland for Russians
