November is Mizrahi Jewish Heritage Month. Join us for an in-person screening and discussion of The Forgotten Refugees, a film about the Jewish exodus from the Muslim world. The documentary weaves personal stories with dramatic archival footage of rescue missions, historic images of exodus and resettlement, and analyses by contemporary scholars to tell the story of how and why the Jewish population in the Middle East and North Africa declined from one million in 1945 to several thousand today.
The program is free, and everyone is welcome.
