This week on Unorthodox, Mel Gibson gives tzedakah.
Our Jewish guest is Ukrainian-born writer Sana Krasikov, whose latest novel, The Patriots, explores the effects of the Cold War on three generations of a Jewish-American family, from the 1930s to the present. She tells us what inspired her Russian family drama, why so many Russian Jews voted for Trump, and the unexpected things she encounters as she raises an American child.
