What? The Jewish Community of Uganda! Fascinating Interview (Audio)

In this enlightening episode of our podcast, I had the privilege of sitting down with Wakibi Benjamin, a dedicated volunteer within the Jewish community of Uganda. Through our conversation, Benjamin offered unique insights into the rich cultural heritage and resilience of this vibrant community, called the Abayudaya ('The People of Judah'). We delved into their history, traditions, prayers (hear him sing Adon Olam at 24:55), relationship with Israel and Diaspora Jewry, and the challenges they face today, shedding light on their journey of preserving and celebrating their Jewish identity in Uganda. Benjamin's passion and deep connection to his community provided listeners with a compelling narrative of faith, perseverance, and the power of cultural heritage in shaping identity and community life. Proud to be a Jew!
