Who Are Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews in the United States? With Dr. Mijal Bitton
Noam Weissman and Mijal Bitton dive into the first national study of Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews in the United States — directed by Dr. Mijal Bitton at NYU in partnership with JIMENA (Jews Indigenous to the Middle East and North Africa). Mijal and Noam discuss a missing chapter in the American Jewish story. Through new research and personal reflection, they explore what Sephardic and Mizrahi experiences and communities reveal about Jewish identity, belonging and traditions.
