Northwest Premiere!
DOUBLE BILL WITH SHALOM IRELAND, BEGINNING AT 6:00 PM, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 17, PACIFIC PLACE
Travel with us to the heart of East Africa’s sugarcane fields, where the pulsating sounds of African song float over a most unusual village. This place has neither electricity nor running water, but does have two treasured torahs and a full synagogue. Not poverty, discrimination, or isolation can keep this Ugandan community of 600 Jews (known as the Abayudaya) from their commitment to Judaism.
Special Guests, Directors, Debra Gonsher Vinik and David Vinik
