“Jewish Ethiopia” with Naftali Aklum, a virtual only program. The story of the exodus of Ethiopian Jews to Israel is one of the most moving historical events of the Jewish people. Although it happened recently, most Israelis and Diaspora Jewry are not aware of the difficulties and challenges encountered by Ethiopian Jews in their trek to reach Israel. Upon arrival they faced various problems and challenges. This program will focus on the history, culture and traditions of Ethiopian Jewry, sharing its unique narrative and cultural treasures. The story of Ethiopian Jewry in Israel is a unique tale of suffering, perseverance, and fulfillment.
