Rabbi Capers Funnye leads his congregation at Beth Shalom Bnai Zaken in Chicago, Il, where his synagogue has been in existence since 1918. Except for a few members, almost all are African American or of Ethiopian descent. Rabbi Funnye is also a writer on JVoices.com.
I am not sure how many of the people in the synagogue are actually Jewish or have just begun to associate themselves with the Jewish faith. It is an incredibly interesting situation. It is a Synagogue for the other Tribes.
