This past Thursday, my anthropology class learned all about the Yemenite Jews. We learned about their time in Yemen and when they were brought to Israel through the "Magic Carpet Project" in the 1950s. What was really cool was that our teacher brought a famous Yemenite dancer to class who taught us all about the culture. She brought clothes with her for us to try on and taught us some of their language and their customs. And then of course she taught us some dances and performed for us. Such a unique experience!!!!!
