Ketzia Alon (in Hebrew: קציעה עלון; born in 1971) is an Israeli academic, social activist, Mizrahi feminist, art curator and critic, and owner of Gama Publishing.
Alon was on the editorial board of the literary journal "Criticism and Review", and was head of the Gender Studies program at Beit Berl College.
She is particularly interested in the intersection of feminism and Mizrahi-ness, which is expounded in the book she wrote with Shula Keshet, Breaking Walls.
[4] In her research, Alon compares and contrasts the dichotomy of Ashkenazi/Mizrahi, in the past and present, with other socio-political dichotomies in Israel, such as Jews and Arabs, religious and secular, political left and right, rich and poor, men and women.
Alon says that she cannot accept the social polarization that has formed in Israeli society around Ashkenazi and Mizrahi identities, claiming that Mizrahi-ness refuses to remain at a defined and separate pole, much as she denied the attempt to separate men and women in this manner.
