My visit to Uman on Rosh Hashanah, the life of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov and how his grave was almost demolished and a personal story about my run-in with the Ukrainian police.
In 2016 I visited Uman, Ukraine for the holiday of Rosh Hashanah and learned a great deal about this historic Jewish community and the famous rabbi who inspired generations with his songs and tales. Hear about the battle of Uman in the 1790s and how the tomb of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov was saved from being turned into a 9-story apartment building by the Soviet Union. Plus, a personal story of how I found my own name and almost got arrested for it.
