The American Sephardi Federation remembers NYSJFF Pomegranate Award Lifetime Achievement Honoree Albert Memmi, A”H, a Tunisian-born sociologist & giant of Sephardi literature. His works include The Pillar of Salt, The Scorpion, & Portrait of the Colonized. “When Sephardim were decolonized & dispossessed from Arab-majority lands that were their homelands for thousands of years, and now despairing about their peripheral existence in Ashkenazi-dominated Israel, they found a champion in the brilliant intellectual & moral voice of Albert Memmi” ~David E.R. Dangoor, President of the American Sephardi Federation, 22nd NY Sephardic Jewish Film Festival, 2019. Please click here to watch RUE ALBERT MEMMI
