Description:
"We Are Black Jews Ethiopian Jewry and the Journey to Equality in Israel by Roni Fantanesh Malkai is a subtle yet powerful work.… Evading the pitfalls of becoming a collection of gripes and grievances, it instead points with insight and perspective to the story of Ethiopian Jewry, highlights its beauty and power, and offers incisive and subtle analysis that avoids simple conclusions. Above all, it is a chronicle of a supremely human story, one that has a great deal to teach Israeli society, and indeed any human society, as well as any individual who wishes to look to life and its human stories to become wiser."
Isaac Herzog
President of the State of Israel

"We Are Black Jews by Roni Fantanesh Malkai is a vital and compelling contribution to understanding the Ethiopian Jewish community’s extraordinary journey to preserve their identity, reunify with the Jewish people, and fulfill their yearning to make aliyah to Israel. With honesty and inspiration, Fantanesh Malkai vividly depicts the community’s aspirations, the hardships they endured in achieving them, and their ongoing fight against discrimination and prejudice, all while presenting a hopeful vision for a more inclusive society."
Abraham H. Foxman
National Director Emeritus of the Anti-Defamation League
