This is an interesting article and good understanding. A few days ago I watched a Youtube of a you Mizrahi woman complaining about not being recognised as who she was and that Israel was her home but also the sentiments expressed in this article.
Young Mizrahi Israelis to young Arabs: we have so much in common | Jews for Justice for Palestinians
We, too, live in a regime that in realitydespite its pretensions to being enlightened and democraticdoes not represent large sections of its actual population in the Occupied Territories and inside the Green Line border(s). This regime tramples the economic and social rights of most of its citizens, is in an ongoing process of minimizing democratic liberties, and constructs racist barriers against Arab-Jews, the Arab people, and Arabic culture. Unlike the citizens of Tunisia and Egypt, we are still a long way from the capacity to build the kind of solidarity between various groups that we see in these countries, a solidarity movement that would allow us to unite and march togetherall who reside hereinto the public squares, to demand a civil regime that is culturally, socially, and economically just and inclusive.
We believe that, as Mizrahi Jews in Israel, our struggle for economic, social, and cultural rights rests on the understanding that political change cannot depend on the Western powers who have exploited our region and its residents for many generations. True change can only come from an intra-regional and inter-religious dialog that is in connection with the different struggles and movements currently active in the Arab world. Specifically, we must be in dialog and solidarity with struggles of the Palestinians citizens of Israel who are fighting for equal political and economic rights and for the termination of racist laws, and the struggle of the Palestinian people living under Israeli military occupation in the West Bank and in Gaza in their demand to end the occupation and to gain Palestinian national independence.
