In this course we will explore how Jewish communities of Latin America have responded to violence and crisis throughout its varied history in the region. From annals of the Inquisition in colonial New Spain to subversive journalism produced during the Dirty Wars of the Southern Cone, Jews of Latin America have penned literature that questions the legacy of Jewish history in the context of modern periods of trauma in the Americas.
