Go beyond the podium with medal-winning Olympic speed skater Emery Lehman as he shares the story behind the speed. In this personal program, Lehman reflects on the dedication and resilience required to compete at the highest level, while navigating the many layers of his Jewish identity. Through moments of triumph, challenge, and self-discovery, he explores how heritage, athletics, and personal values shape who we are. Connected to the themes of 48 Jews: Layers of Identity, this talk invites us to consider how identity is expressed, perceived, and carried—on the ice and in everyday life. Stay for a Q&A with Emery Lehman and continue the conversation.
