Arrival Day Blogburst

I am remiss at not noting Arrival Day, September 7th. Yesterday was the 350th year since Jews landed at what was then called New Amsterdam, and Head Heeb Jonathan Edelstein has been blogging about this impending date for over a year now. He has collected a very impressive blogburst on the topic, so go check it out. And I hang my head in shame I did not contribute; I had other things on my mind. Thanks to Shoshanna for reminding me.

If you are in the NYC Metro area, you might want to mosey down to South Street Seaport for a day-long Jewish Music & Heritage Festival.

UPDATE: The Jewish Week has a huge special section devoted to this topic, with lots of articles on jewish history and life in the US.
