Shalom Y'all tells the unique story of the Southern Jewish experience through three distinct voices: photographs, a narrative woven into descriptive captions of the photographs, and stories told by southern Jews about being Jewish in the South. In short, they were “southern Jews:” southerners as defined by their
location and lifestyle; Jews by virtue of their religion and their heritage. Southern and Jewish are two words not often associated with each other. Shalom Y'all indelibly links them in presenting this first comprehensive look at the southern Jewish experience.
