“Meet the Jewish Ethiopian-Ukrainian singer staffing Birthright this summer” Tracy Frydberg, The Times of Israel Bethlehem Endale is a Russian-speaking, Jewish dentist who recently performed on The Voice in Ukraine, where she was raised. Oh, and her parents are Ethiopian Jews. She’ll be spending this summer with Russian-speaking Birthright groups in Israel. How was her first visit to the country? “It was a crazy experience… At passport control, there was an Ethiopian soldier and she looked at my passport, checking it again and again and said, ‘You’re from Ukraine? Really?’”

“Chicken ‘Crack’” By Elana Horwich, The Jewish Journal Sicilian Jewish history goes back 1500 years, with the Greek-speaking Romaniote community peaking at its end in 1492 when 25,000 Sicilian Jews fell victim to the Alhambra Decree. The community left an enduring mark, however, in a surprising place: Italian food. Meatballs, to be specific. Elana Horwich offers a recipe, “These meatballs can make wonderful appetizers… I like to serve them with a caramelized onion jam… But be warned: You may find it very difficult to stop eating this highly addictive ‘Chicken crack.’”
