While mah jongg is having a big moment of popularity right now, Abbe Blacker has at the forefront, teaching the game privately in homes and through community education programs in the area. Now, she’s decided to centralize that, opening the Minneapolis Mah Jongg Club in Edina’s 50th and France District. We talk what led her to open up her new club, how Jews ended up playing mahj en masse, and the growing demographics of people who want to pick the game up, on this week’s Who The Folk?! Podcast.
