Wartime in North Africa with Sarah Abrevaya Stein

Hosted By: Orange County Community Scholar Program (CSP)

Under the Nazi, Vichy, and Italian fascist regimes, Jews as well as some Muslims, were subject to race law and internments in North Africa. Join UCLA professor Sarah Abrevaya Stein, co-editor (with Aomar Boum) of The Holocaust and North Africa and the forthcoming Wartime North Africa as she discusses the experiences of North African Jews during World War II, why their histories have been marginalized and the relationship between Jews and Muslims during that period and how it reverberates today.
