My Father's Paradise: The Jewish Past in Kurdish Iraq
OCTOBER 28, 2008 TUESDAY AT 3PM CT

 


  Ariel Sabar is one of a handful of people on earth who speaks Aramaic, the ancient language of Jesus. That's because he is a Kurdish Jew. He tells the amazing story of his people who have managed to keep their faith, their language, and their culture alive over nearly three thousand years despite the greatest odds.
