Per Google:

Based on the search results, here is a summary of the bias faced by Ethiopian Jews compared to other Jewish communities:

Racism and discrimination: Ethiopian Jews have faced appalling discrimination and racism from the Israeli establishment, including questioning their Judaism, since their arrival in Israel in the 1980s. This has led to systemic inequalities in employment, education, and housing.
Higher poverty rates: Ethiopian Jews have the highest poverty rate among Jewish communities in Israel, with 63% of Ethiopian women unemployed in 2000 (although this rate decreased to 26% by 2016).
Police bias: Ethiopian Jews have been victims of police bias, with 11 reported deaths since 1997 in clashes with police.
Religious rejectionism: Some religious authorities have rejected the Jewish identity of Ethiopian Jews, citing concerns about their conversion status or perceived lack of Jewish heritage. This has led to discrimination in employment, such as the 2019 case of Ethiopian-Israeli employees at Barkan Winery being demoted and excluded from handling kosher wine.
Comparison to other Jewish communities: The experiences of Ethiopian Jews are often compared to those of other Jewish communities, such as Ashkenazi and Sephardi Jews, who have historically faced discrimination and exclusion. However, Ethiopian Jews have faced unique challenges due to their African heritage and the historical isolation of their community.
Institutionalized racism: The Israeli State religious establishment has been criticized for perpetuating institutionalized racism against Ethiopian Jews, with some rabbis and officials questioning their Jewish identity or denying their right to participate in Jewish rituals and practices.
Lack of representation and inclusion: Ethiopian Jews have limited representation and inclusion in Israeli society, with few holding positions of power or influence. This has contributed to their marginalization and exclusion from mainstream Jewish life.

In comparison to other Jewish communities, Ethiopian Jews face a unique set of challenges due to their African heritage, historical isolation, and systemic discrimination. While Ashkenazi and Sephardi Jews have also faced discrimination and exclusion, Ethiopian Jews have been subject to a distinct form of racism and marginalization that is rooted in their ethnicity and cultural background.
