Greek Jewry: At the Crossroads of Civilizations
Hosted By: Qesher
Qesher presents a program on the Jewish presence in Greece, which dates back to antiquity and represents the oldest Jewish community in the western hemisphere. Once the epicenter of Sephardi culture in Europe and home to the unique Greek-speaking Romaniote community, Greece’s Jewish population numbered around 80,000 before World War II. The Holocaust decimated this population, and today the community works to preserve its unique heritage.
