Noted Arab Israeli Author, Satirist Speaks at Congregation Mount Sinai
Arab-Israeli writer and satirist Sayed Kashua comes to Congregation Mount Sinai next Monday for a talk and book signing.
Kashua is considered a talented and ambitious writer with a top-rated television comedy series. But as an Arab citizen of Israel, he never feels completely at home. He’s been called a walking, talking oxymoron, constantly called upon to justify himself, his work and even his decision to write in Hebrew. The community is invited to a public conversation and viewing of an episode of “Avodah Aravit” (“Arab Labor”), now in its third season, of which he is the writer and creator. Kashua will also share his reflections on his Arab-Israeli experience.
