It was written in a dark tin shack in Jerusalem on a stolen typewriter. In the introduction to this 50th Anniversary Edition, Reuven Abergel, one of the founders of the movement, writes that the Haggadah talks \"about the pain, discrimination, and oppression that we were subjected to as part of Israel's policy of separation between Jews from Muslim countries and Jews from Eastern Europe.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA year later, a fire destroyed most of the Israeli Black Panthers' archives, including the Haggadah. It was thought lost for some 40 years until a rabbi who collected Haggadot reached out to Abergel with a copy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 2019, a second edition of the Haggadah was published in Hebrew as a pamphlet, an effort initiated through The Civil Archive of Social Struggles in Israel, led by Sapir Sluzker Amran. After that, groups came together with the purpose of making the Israeli Black Panthers struggle and the Haggadah story accessible in both Hebrew and English as a way of promoting dialogue about the potential of Mizrahi struggle in Israel\/Palestine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTranslator Itamar Haritan worked closely with Abergel to translate the Haggadah into English starting in 2017 and has updated parts of it since then with his help. \u003cem\u003eThe Israeli Black Panthers Haggadah\u003c\/em\u003e is a completely bilingual (Hebrew-English) book and in addition to the new translation from Haritan and introduction from Abergel, there are other new essays that reflect on the Israeli Black Panthers and the Haggadah text.
