Napoleon and the Jews of Paris (Kosher Riverboat Cruises)

Formally emancipated in 1790-91, the rights of Jews as citizens were challenged a decade later. In his typically grandiose fashion, Napoleon addressed the question by reconvening the ancient Great Sanhedrin and asked the Jews of France twelve basic questions. A brief discussion in preparation for the upcoming Kosher Riverboat Cruise along the Seine river this July. Please visit for more information.
