The Jewish World of Alexander Hamilton

Hosted By: London School of Jewish Studies (LSJS)

Marking American Independence Day, this lecture presents a radical theory on one of America’s founding fathers, Alexander Hamilton. Drawing from his award-winning book, Professor Porwancher debunks myths about Hamilton’s origins and concludes that Hamilton was likely born and raised Jewish. Using a detective’s persistence and a historian’s rigor, Prof. Porwancher upends assumptions and revolutionizes the understanding of this American icon.
