Religion, history, and architecture meet in this contemporary tour of a restored synagogue in San Leandro. The structure, dubbed "Little Shul" ("little school"), dates back to 1889, and the congregation itself had its roots in the 1850s. The tour guide is Rabbi John J. Zucker, who retired in 1978 after 31 years as leader of Temple Beth Sholom. Included are interior shots of ceremonial objects in this structure which is still used weekly.
