In the fall of 1970, a group of Jewish Cornell students did something radical. Energized by a Freedom Seder on campus led by Arthur Waskow and the countercultural movement sweeping a country, they created a Jewish communal house. The Cornell Havurah was an “an anti-establishment establishment,” completely independent with no deans, resident advisors, or national organizations overseeing it.
The havurah was a residential component of the Jewish counterculture, a larger movement that included Jewish feminism and a Jewish anti-war movement. Translating literally to “fellowship,” the havurah was outside the synagogue structure, a place where Jews would come together for prayer, classes, meals, hiking, folk-singing, and more.
At this time of great turmoil in the country, and in the Jewish world, Jewish students at Cornell responded by seeking shelter from the storm ... together. To live intentionally—and communally—as Jews was a brave and original act in 1970. It was a statement of ethnic and religious pride, made by a group of college students who wanted to live their Judaism every day. As the rotating cast of residents proved over the years to come, a Jewish house can be a space where Jews of all kinds, of all political persuasions and sexual orientations, and of every shade of religious observance, could find themselves and find joy with others.
Episode 6 of Gatecrashers features Arthur Waskow, and a host of residents and regulars of the various iterations of the Cornell Havurah including Carl Viniar, Naomi Guttman-Bass, Reena Sigman Friedman, Judy Feierstein, Howard Adelman, Naomi Levy, Susan Lehmann, Richard Lehmann, Shari Edelstein, Bruce Temkin, Joe Avni-Singer, Alan Edelman, and Erica Edelman.
The first world war, known simply as the Great War at that time, was the most horrific war the world had ever seen. When the conflict ended, there was an effort to make sure that such a thing never happened again.
To that end, a deliberative body was created where nations could come together to debate and discuss matters before plunging, once again, into war.
While having some success, this deliberative body ultimately failed at its stated goal of avoiding another world war.

Most children growing up are admonished not to take candy from strangers.
It is good advice, but it isn’t advice that comes from nowhere. It comes from a particular incident 150 years ago that shocked the world and changed how we view children’s safety.
It was an event, the echos of which can be seen today in efforts to find abducted children.

In the TV series Game of Thrones, there were four different seasons where disputes were determined with trial by combat.
As fictional as the Game of Thrones universe is, the idea of resolving legal disputes by fighting, sometimes to the death, was historically accurate.
For centuries, trial by combat was a legitimate option for conflict resolution, and according to some theories, it might still technically exist.
Learn more about trial by combat and how it was actually conducted on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

For most of human history, if you wanted something, you had to make it yourself or know the person who made it.
Eventually, merchants began to sell more and more goods in one store to make it convenient for consumers.
These stores reached their zenith with enormous structures which sold almost everything. They were not just innovations themselves, but they were an engine for innovations which are still with us today.
Learn more about the rise and fall of department stores on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
