Mordechai Abraham - Unity in a Time of Crisis

In this episode, I sit down with Mordechai Abraham to discuss current political efforts to unite all tour guides under a new umbrella federation or united front. Mordechai talks about his dedication to the State of Israel and how he and those of his generation do not take it for granted, but rather see it as a precious gift. He recounts his personal experiences surrounding the founding of the State, the War of Independence, his father's escape from Germany, the loss of loved ones in the Holocaust, as well as his time on Kibbutz and as a principal of a vocational school. From there, we analyze the current unprecedented difficulties that tour guides are facing due to the Covid crisis and the ongoing political struggle to receive government recognition and support.
