Recently, the relationship between the black and Jewish communities has become strained due to rising anti-Semitism and intersectional ideologies that see Jews as white oppressors. In today’s episode of “Our Middle East”, Dan Diker and Khaled Abu Toameh talk with Pastor Dumisani Washington, founder of the Institute for Black Solidarity with Israel, one of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs’ partner organizations. Together they discuss

• the long and complicated relationship between Israel, the American black community and Jews.
• what can be done to bring the Black American community closer to Israel?
• the diverse approach to politics that the Arab-Israeli minority takes toward Israel
• the common inspiration that African and Arab communities see in Israel.

Last, but not least, Dan Diker reveals information about a history-making delegation coming to Israel.
