What a beautiful way to end 2023 by passing the torch on to the next recipient of the Young Leadership Award at the Sephardic Brotherhood of America's International Sephardic Community Gala in new York City. As the honoree in 2021, it was my pleasure this year to pass the award on to the extraordinary historian and professor, Dr. Devin E. Naar. He has done so much through his position at the University of Washington, Seattle to build up the profile of Sephardic studies the world over. He couldn't be more deserving!
