"The New Jews" explores the evolving identity of Jews in contemporary society, primarily through the lens of two individuals: Nissim Black, a rapper born into a non-religious African-American family who converted to Orthodox Judaism, and Bob Dylan, a Jewish folk musician who has had a complex relationship with his Jewish heritage.

In this episode of the Jewish Lives Podcast, the life and impact of Peggy Guggenheim, a prominent Jewish art patron in 20th century America, is discussed.
