Xeuta Island: A Hidden History
Hosted By: Haberman Institute
XUETA ISLAND: A HIDDEN HISTORY, shares the widely-unknown story of the Xuetas, an isolated group of Jews on the Mediterranean island of Majorca in Spain. In the 1400s, the Xuetas were forced to convert to Catholicism to save their lives. Today, their dark story of survival is sparking a Jewish renaissance across the community.
