    Carmi Schwartz: The Road That Got Us Here [American Jewish History 4/4]
    2026/07/14
    In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to Jewish communal executive Carmi Schwartz about lessons he’s learned in his 90-plus years as a member and leader of the Jewish community.

    In this episode we discuss:

    —What draws a professional to Jewish communal work rather than business pursuits or Torah scholarship?
    —How does one imbue organizational and Zionist work with religious Jewish content?
    —What has it been like to directly witness the Jewish community’s tensions around driving on Shabbat, patrilineal descent, and recognition of non-Orthodox conversions?

    Interview begins at 10:20.

    Tune in to hear a conversation about all of the forks in the road that brought us to this moment in American Jewish history.

    Carmi Schwartz is a longtime leader in the North American Jewish federation system. He served as Executive Vice President of the Council of Jewish Federations (CJF), one of the organizations that later merged into today's Jewish Federations of North America. Earlier in his career, he held leadership positions with Jewish federations in Metropolitan New Jersey, Baltimore, Utica, Miami, and Montreal.

    2026/06/30
    In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to historian Zev Eleff about what 250 years of Jewish life in America can teach us about religion, identity, and the future of American Judaism.

    In this episode we discuss:

    —Why did colonial Jews support the American Revolution despite knowing the dangers of opposing those in power?
    —How did Jewish denominations and institutions as we know them emerge in America, and what roles did Zionism and U.S. immigration policy play in this?
    —Where are we headed on our American Jewish journey, and what have we learned along the way?

    Tune in to hear a conversation about the intersection of the Jewish story and American exceptionalism.

Zev is the author and editor of nine books and more than 50 scholarly articles in the fields of Jewish Studies and American Religion, including Modern Orthodox Judaism: A Documentary History, Dyed in Crimson: Football, Faith, and Remaking Harvard’s America, and Authentically Orthodox: A Tradition-Bound Faith in American Life.
