Dr. John-Paul Himka: Five Sins and Five Mitzvot
Renowned historian Dr. John-Paul Himka explores the questions shaping Jewish–Ukrainian relations today: not the deeds of past generations, but the perceptions and mental images that still influence how communities see one another. He asks what harms these relationships—and what “mitzvot,” or acts of understanding and goodwill, can help build trust, recognition, and shared purpose rooted in common history and futures.
A leading scholar of Ukrainian history, Himka is Professor Emeritus at the University of Alberta and the author of influential works on nationalism, memory, and the Holocaust, widely recognized for his rigorous and courageous scholarship.
