Last Jews of Yemen
By Journalists Rachael Strecher & Josh Berer
 
Compelled by the opportunity to document the last indigenous Jewish community of the Middle East before it vanishes, journalists Rachael Strecher and Josh Berer spent several months living in Sana, Yemen. The result is a unique collection of photos and journal entries documenting an ancient Jewish community on the brink of exodus as a result of civil war, cultural isolation and violent anti-Semitism.
