Chazak UK CEO Rabbi Yitsy David explains why his Sephardic upbringing shaped his drive to improve education on Jewish diversity.
For Rabbi Yitsy David, growing up in a Sephardic home in Hendon was atypical of the north-west London experience. His Indian-born mother and Burmese father both descended from Iraqi Jews and moved to London in the 1970s. They spoke Hindi at home, and between them brought a rich culture, history and palate that reflected their roots.
