RACHEL SHABI:

NOT THE ENEMY-ISRAEL'S JEWS FROM ARAB LANDS

Rachel Shabi will be discussing her critically acclaimed book ‘Not the Enemy-Israel’s Jews from Arab Lands.’ This book lays bare the painful division within Israeli society between Ashkenazi Jews, whose families come from Eastern Europe, and Sephardic or Mizrahi Jews, who come from the Arab countries of the Middle East.

Rachel was born in Israel to Iraqi Jews and grew up in England. A journalist, she has written for a variety of national and international newspapers such as the Guardian, the Sunday Times, the New Statesman, the Independent on Sunday, English Al-Jazeera online, and the National. For the past five years she has been based in Israel and reporting on the Middle East conflict.
