MY OWN SECOND EXODUS FROM EGYPT

We invite all Jews born in Egypt to SEND US THEIR PERSONAL STORIES or to fill the following Questionnaire,  if you prefer.  Please remember that your story should also address the experiences and difficulties encountered after our exile, and delineate our ability in surmounting them and in starting a new full life afresh. We are planning to publish these important stories for posterity in the “GOLDEN BOOK OF THE JEWS FROM EGYPT (2008 - 2009)/
