Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
The plight of Ethiopia’s African Jewish community was relatively unknown when Americans first learned of the Falashas in the 1980s. We hear about a film exploring the history, politics, and resettlement of Black Jews in the Holy Land, and meet the lead actor who was airlifted to Israel at the age of 12.
