Resilience and Resettlement: Venezuelan Jews
Hosted By: Qesher
The 20th century saw thousands of Jews from North Africa and Eastern Europe find refuge and opportunities in Venezuela, a land that became exceptionally welcoming to them. Since 1999, when Hugo Chávez took office, the emigration of Venezuelan Jews accelerated exponentially. This talk aims to shed light on the complex journey of the shrinking Jewish community in Venezuela. By understanding their story, you can gain deeper insights into the challenges faced by the Jews in Venezuela in a socio-political upheaval. Explore the broader themes of identity, migration, and cultural preservation, highlighting their struggles, resilience, and hopes for the future.
