The ASF Institute of Jewish Experience presents:

Reclaiming Identity:

Jews of Arab Lands and Iran share stories of identity, struggle and redemption

Join us for a global virtual event marking the November 30, Israel’s national day of commemorating the effectual end of Jewish in many Arab lands and Iran. We will discuss questions such as: What is my true identity? How does my family narrative coexist within the wider Jewish world? Why, when, and how did I reclaim my heritage identity? Featuring guests from Dubai to Los Angeles!

Tuesday, 30 November at 9:00AM EST

On 23 June 2014, the Knesset adopted a law designating 30 November as an annual, national day of commemoration for the 850,000 Jewish refugees who were displaced from Arab countries and Iran in the 20th century.

This year on 30 November, Jews across the world will share personal experiences of their families who left those countries only to once again face losses in the experience of living their heritage and identity. It is time to reclaim our Jewish heritage!
