AN INTRODUCTION
A decade after the mass immigration
of a large population of Iranian Jews to the United States, and
once the early problems of settlement, financial security, and
adapting to a new environment were somewhat resolved, some members
of the community noticed the lack of written history and documentation
on twenty seven centuries of their life in Iran. They also became
cognizant of the lack of knowledge and awareness of the society
toward their historic and cultural heritage. At this transitional
point in history, this group felt a need to shed light on and preserve
this rich heritage for the generations to come. They wanted their
children to be aware of their identity and roots, and they wanted
to provide information on this long forgotten and neglected Iranian
branch of Jewish history. |
