Jewish Culture
Viewed In Italy

Rome (JTA) — Italy's edu-
cation minister has unveiled
a video about Jewish re-
ligion, history and culture
that will be distributed to
high schools all over the
country.
"This initiative is of great
importance," Education
Minister Rosa Russo Jer-
volino told reporters at a
news conference last week at
which excerpts from the
video were shown.
She said 10,000
videocassettes would be
distributed to Italian
schools.
Tullia Zevi, president of
the Union of Italian Jewish
Communities, who also took
part in the news conference,
said the Italian Jewish
community considered the
release of the video a signifi-
cant development.
"We hope that it will be a
pilot program leading to
other educational in-
itiatives," she said.
"Prejudice is born of ig-
norance. In a democratic
society, unity and diversity
are both important. This
film presents a small part of
the Italian reality.
"Today, prejudice is being
expressed against new im-
migrants. This video shows
the 2,000-year continuity of
Jews in Italy. It demon-
strates a long coexistence
that can be an example for
new immigrants," said Mr.
Zevi.
The 70-minute video, titled
"Who Are the Jews?" was
produced by the Education
Ministry in cooperation with
the state television network,
RAI, and the Jewish com-
munity.
Jewish leaders had lobbied
for years to use educational
material about the country's
Jews in Italy's school
system.
A panel of experts wrote
the script and also assembl-
ed background literature
that will also be used in the
classroom.
Along with the video, com-
plementary texts and
teacher manuals will be
distributed throughout the
country.
About 40,000 Jews live in
Italy out of a total popula-
tion of about 58 million.
More than half the Jewish
population is concentrated
in Rome and Milan. 0

Rather herbs and sacks
among your own than cakes
and silks where you're
unknown.
