The Krymchaks are a Turkic-speaking, ethno-cultural Jewish community whose primary homeland until the early 1990s was the Crimean Peninsula. Today, the Krymchak population is minimal, rendering them an endangered community. Following the onset of the Great Aliyah from the USSR, the largest concentration of Krymchaks settled in Israel. There, community activists work diligently to preserve, develop, and transmit the Krymchak cultural heritage. This is the final episode of the first season.
Guest: Rabbi Binyamin Minich, scholar of Jewish philosophy and political theology, co-founder and board member of the Association of Krymchak Jews in Israel.
