Welcome to ZionismU | The Best Place to Learn About Zionism

Theodor Herzl

If you want to learn about Zionism, you’ve come to the right place. A movement inspired by a pamphlet written by a Viennese Jew by the name of Theodor Herzl grew into a worldwide political movement. Its roots, of course, go much deeper. Back to biblical times.

Our Zionism 101 series offers more than 45 films on Zionist history. All films are original, absolutely free, and can only be found on this site. Learn aspects of Zionist history that most people know little about such as Christian Zionism, the revival of Hebrew and the Jewish fighting undergrounds. Discover the people who made Israel a reality, the battles they fought, the setbacks that nearly defeated them.

Whether you’re starting from scratch, or looking to brush up on your Ben-Gurion, this site has it all. Instructors looking to teach about Zionism will find a wealth of material including lesson plans, PowerPoints and supporting documents to help in the classroom. So look around. Explore our site.
