“When I say my name, they usually look at my face carefully and ask a second question:
- Where are you from? You speak Turkish very well.
- Of course I do, I say I am Turkish, I am a Turkish Jew.
From that moment on, they lock on to that magic word: “Jew”. 
Some of them, with a twinkle of curiosity in their eyes, dare to say: 
- “Oh, I've always wondered about you, can I ask you something, if you don't mind?” and they list the questions.
Why should I be angry? Over time, I accepted this innocent curiosity.
What I couldn't accept at first was always being asked the same questions!  
Questions that start with “Why?” and carry a little bit of prejudiced information...Then I thought to myself;
- Why this perception? How is it that Jews of different nationalities spread all over the world have always created the same perception in minds? Why does a Jew from Yemen and a Jew from Sweden have the same traditions? 

I kept asking, reading, researching, thinking and thinking... With your permission, we will tell...” Moris Levi
