The 3 embeds I chose were a synagogue, a women club of Albany, and an Albany brewing company. Seeing the synagogue on the explore page was very surprising, partly because I never viewed Albany as a Jewish city. I’m interested in why Jews would choose to settle in Albany and start their own community there. The women club of Albany was interesting because at a time when women were not held equal to men, I wonder what the main purpose of the club was. I saw a picture of what seemed to be the house and was curious on the background behind it. Lastly I chose the brewing company because it seemed like a popular part of Albany’s early society. I wondered what the beer tasted like.
