The ASF Institute of Jewish Experience presents:

Mizrahi Jews Sent to Live in the Desert:
An Interactive Session with Ben-Gurion Heritage Institute

Join us for an interactive session with Ben-Gurion Heritage Institute!

In this interactive movie David Ben-Gurion arrives at court to make himself heard on five subjects and historical events. We will be exploring the topic of “Population Dispersion – Immigrant Housing in the Early Years.”

In 1948 Ben-Gurion wrote, “We do not yet have a jury system…. I hope that one day it will be part of our legal constitution. Because here, as in England and the US, it should be the average person with common sense who should judge us”.

Now you are invited to be the jury in this imaginary court: learn about the affairs, hear the different sides and in the end YOU decide. Come and influence history!

Sunday, 22 May at 12:00PM EST
