As an organization representing the one million Jewish refugees who were ethnically cleansed or fled antisemitic persecution in the Middle East and North Africa, and whose Sephardic descendants now comprise more than half of Israel’s Jewish population, members of JIMENA's Speakers Bureau are uniquely positioned to counter the antisemitic claim that Israel and her Jewish American supporters are oppressive, colonial, interlopers with no connection to the Middle East. This revisionist narrative, which is growing in popularity on many college campuses in North American, erases the histories and rights of Jewish refugees from the region in an effort to delegitimize Israel and Jewish people’s ancient and ongoing presence in the region. JIMENA is committed to engaging students on campuses throughout the United States in authentic and diverse Middle Eastern heritage and empowering them with the Jewish people’s multi-millennia ties to the region. Members of JIMENA's Speakers Bureau share deeply personal stories of Jewish life in the Middle East, adding nuance and accuracy to the status quo of on-campus dialogue regarding the Middle East and North Africa. JIMENA's campus programs strengthen participant's knowledge and cultural continuity with the Middle East, while enriching campus Jewish life by engaging diverse communities in programs which emphasize Jewish diversity and the Middle Eastern Jewish experience.
