#so trying to tether most jewish communities to a specific place in a ''theyve always been there'' way is not only useless

[grecoromanyaoi]

pray tell how r ppl descended from arab conquerors from the 7-8th c. and ppl who adopted/were forced to convert to their culture "ethnically north african" or even "indigenous tunisians" but jews fleeing violent prosecution who found refuge in north africa arent. bc jews dont "belong" there? where do they "belong"?

it was esp funny of the older anon to try n use settler/indigenous dichotomy on pre-french-colonialism tunisia of all places considering imazighen and arabization and anti-amazigh behavior of both individuals, groups n governments. most tunisians arent "indigenous". like referring to non-livornese jews in tunisia as "indigenous" is just clearly indicating how u dont know what ur talking abt bc a. a lot of them r sephardim as well and b. even a lot of non-sephardic tunisian jews r arabized, not indigenous. but what can i expect from an anon that said 'spanish sephardim'
