How did Israeli and Western Jews react to Ethiopian immigrants in Israel who are referred to as “Black Jews”? The book addresses the question of what occurs when Jews choose whiteness and Black individuals choose Blackness by examining the case of Ethiopian Jews and their immigration to Israel from the mid-19th century to today. This in-depth, holistic analysis of Ethiopian Jewish experience in Israel by an Ethiopian Jewish scholar provides a fresh, necessary perspective on “Black” Jewish diaspora experiences, on Jewish Studies and Black Studies theory.
Danny B. Admasu, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel.
