Jews of Sudan
Saturday, December 6, 2025
7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
11215 Woodglen Drive Magen David Rockville MD 20852 United States
Magen David Sephardic Congregation
A film screening of “Jews and the Longest Kiss in History”
with remarks by Dr. Jeffrey Malka (Grandson of the last Chief Rabbi of Sudan)
Discover the untold story of the Jewish community of Sudan— a journey that began with just eight families under Egyptian-Turkish rule in the late 1800s.
This powerful film follows their remarkable rise, their exile amid growing persecution, and the extraordinary secret mission in 1977 to rescue the sacred Torah scrolls and transfer the buried remains from Khartoum to Jerusalem. A moving historical chronicle of identity, courage, and the systematic erasure of Judaism in Sudan.
