Remarkable and Unfinished Exodus of the Ethiopian Jews Cost: R395 available

3689344 Photographic exhibition "Ethiopia in Israel"
now on until 5 August 2007: Museum Africa (121 Bree Street, Newtown) In
1977 there were about one hundred Ethiopian Jews in Israel; now there are more
than one hundred thousand. Their courageous exodus from their native land and
their mass immigration to Israel is a unique historical event. But their journey
to feel at home in the Promised Land is not yet complete. How can they become
accepted and integrated into Israeli culture without losing their own character,
identity and values? How will their experience as a part of Israel's most impoverished
and culturally distinct minority enrich Judaism and Israeli society? Insightful
and touching, THE ETHIOPIAN JEWS OF ISRAEL: Personal Stories of Life in the Promised
Landis the first book to recount in captivating photographs and candid interviews
the profound challenges and inspiring accomplishments of Ethiopian Jews struggling
to become Ethiopian Israelis. Featuring more than fifty men and women-religious
leaders, soldiers, lawyers, students, actors, musicians, a member of the Knesset,
and more-it reveals their fascinating personal stories and traces their hazardous
journeys to Israel and how they fight to survive and thrive in an environment
they could never have imagined. Using dramatic and evocative full-color photographs,
it tells an unforgettable story of contemporary relevance, as the Jewish State
continues to bring more Jews from Ethiopia. "That the
Ethiopian Jews have persevered over the centuries and made aliyah almost in their
entirety is a miracle of our own time," writes Len Lyons in THE ETHIOPIAN
JEWS OF ISRAEL. "Even with substantial help from Jews around the world, the
cost of completing the aliyah and the absorption of the Ethiopian Jews is daunting.
Their collective saga is one of dedication to living as Jews and commitment to
living in Israel. Their individual stories show them to be a treasure that once
fully claimed will enrich Judaism and Israeli society."
