A Sweet Sixteen game broke out at Emory University last Friday. So did a Jewish pride festival.

For the first time in school history, the Yeshiva Maccabees reached the NCAA Division III Sweet Sixteen — and hundreds of Jewish fans from across the country showed up in Atlanta to witness it. 

Yarmulkes in the stands. Host families arranged in Toco Hills. A Holocaust survivor's 91st birthday.

"It can feel like a broken world," said one father in attendance. "And this is a way to heal those scars."

The full story is at the link in bio.
