Co-director Avishai Mekonen, then 10 years old, was among them. In this film, he breaks his 20-year silence about the kidnapping he endured as a child in Sudan during his community’s exodus. This life-defining event launches an inquiry into identity, leading him to other African, Asian and Latino Jews in Israel and the U.S. Register Online: www.museumoftolerancenewyork.com/freedom   $12   View More See the Events Archive Home | About Us | History | Events | Gallery | Programs | Support Us | Contact Us 25 BROADWAY, 17TH FLOOR NEW YORK, NY 10004 INFO@BINACF.ORG © 2008 BINA CULTURAL FOUNDATION INC
