In honor of Passover, join us on Zoom to explore Yemenite Jewish culture and traditions Monday, April 7th at 6pm ET with Israeli-American filmmaker, Dana Schneider.
Dana is passionate about sharing her journey of bringing Yemenite Jewish stories to the screen. As a Yemenite American-Israeli artist, she’s passionate about expanding Jewish representation through humor and storytelling. She’ll talk about the inspiration behind her upcoming film, Nice Jewish Girl, the rich history and culture of Yemenite Jews, their century-long traditions including distinct Passover practices, and why Mizrahi voices need more space in media. This is a chance to dive into Mizrahi heritage, ask questions, and find out how to support and engage with Mizrahi culture today—whether through film, community events, or just learning more. Join Dana for a lively conversation about identity, storytelling, and the power of reclaiming our histories with a Q&A to follow!
