Join us for a special film screening and conversation exploring the history and experiences of Yemenite Jews and their journey from Yemen to Israel and beyond.
The program will feature a screening of We Are From Here, which follows Rabbi Gadi Capela, a Columbia University student during the October 7 riots, as he shares his family’s exodus from Yemen during Operation On Wings of Eagles. The film highlights the experiences of Middle Eastern Jews and their enduring connection to the Land of Israel.
