82. My Homeland Is Ukraine (with Mariia Hershova)

This week: We’re approaching six months of Russia’s war in Ukraine, and by extension, six months of the Ukrainian refugee crisis. So I talk with Mariia Hershova, a 23-year-old Ukrainian Jew helping refugees in Poland, about how the refugee situation has evolved, and the pride of Ukrainian Jewry.
