In this new episode, host Ma'asehyahu Isra-Ul sits down for a conversation with an intriguing and important man - Rabbi Capers Funnye. Not only is he First Lady Michelle Obama's first cousin but also the rabbi and spiritual leader of Chicago's oldest extant synagogue (Beth Shalom B'nai Zaken Ethiopian Hebrew Congregation). The history of African American Jews in Chicago and throughout the United States is a history of rejection, commitment, perseverance, and determination. In this discussion we learn about the trials and successes of African American Jews in Chicago since the early 1900s and how the struggle for religious equality has been ongoing around the globe for Jews of African descent. From the oldest Black synagogue in Chicago to the first woman rabbi to be ordained by the Israelite Board of Rabbis, Inc., this is a story...a history that you must not miss! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/leadingbyhistory/support
