Mijal and Noam take a deep dive into race, identity, and what it means to be a Jew of color in the United States today. The episode centers on Mijal Bitton's deeply personal essay, "Why I Am Not a Jew of Color," published in Sapir Journal. Mijal opens up about her background as a non-white Sephardic Jew from Argentina and Syria, and why she resists the label “Jew of Color.” Together, she and Noam unpack the complexity of racial discourse in the Jewish community. Mijal and Noam encourage a nuanced approach to the conversation about race and Jewish identity that includes depth, honesty and empathy.
