SUMMARY:Manhattan’s Little Syria 
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that the first Arabic-speaking community in the United States was in New York City? If the answer is no\, you’re not alone. Until Linda Jacobs’ book\, Strangers in the West\, was published in 2012\, the story of that community had been lost. Even the descendants of the people who lived there (among whom were Jacobs’ grandparents) didn’t know about it! Jacobs will talk about reconstructing the colony\, name by name\, its connection to the many smaller Syrian colonies in New Jersey\, and her newest research on Tuesday\, September 30\, 6:30 pm.
