Mandel JDS invites you to hear Raphael Elmaleh, author of the captivating book "Jews under Moroccan Skies," as he takes us on a mesmerizing journey through the centuries-old Jewish heritage of Morocco. Rafi will explore the vibrant tapestry of Jewish-Muslim relations as he sheds light on the profound connections and shared experiences between the two communities.

 

Born in Casablanca, Rafi brings firsthand knowledge and passion to his storytelling, offering a vivid portrayal of Moroccan Jewish life and culture as well as his own unique personal experience. As the sole local Jewish guide and curator of the Jewish Museum in Casablanca, Rafi traveled to all the regions of Morocco, identifying and documenting Jewish towns and sites, as well as rescuing Judaic artifacts that had been lost or discarded for decades. Rafi's insights offer a unique perspective on the enduring legacy of Moroccan Jewry.
