SUMMARY:The Layers of the Moroccan Jewish Experience: Session 3 - Moving into Modernity: Monarchy\, Islam\, and the Jews of Morocco
DESCRIPTION:The Layers of the Moroccan Jewish Experience \nSession 3: Moving into Modernity: Monarchy\, Islam\, and the Jews of Morocco \nSunday August 17\, 2025 – 10:00am In Person and on Zoom \nAs a French colony\, Morocco was subject to same anti-Jewish decrees as the Jews of France from Nazi-allied Vichy France during the Second World War. Yet in 1941\, King Mohammed V refused to deport Morocco’s 250\,000 Jews to the concentration camps of Europe stating: “There are no Jews in Morocco. There are only Moroccan subjects\,” resulting in the entirety of Morocco‘s Jewish population being saved. This continuing relationship and the genuine affection most Moroccan subjects (Muslim and Jew) still feel for their king is still evident today. \nThis lecture will investigate the complex relationship between monarchs and Jews in Morocco – especially as it pertains to the culture of Islam. \nClick here to register! \nThis lecture series is for members only. \n  \nAbout the Series \nWe are excited to be able to share this lecture series\, The Layers of the Moroccan Jewish Experience\, with our entire congregation. The series will be presented by Dr. David Mendelsohn. We are thrilled that Dr. Mendelsohn will also be joining us on our congregational trip to Morocco in the fall\, in addition to our local guide\, to bring added depth to our learning as we travel the country together. \nDr. Mendelsohn’s areas of expertise include Islamic Studies\, History and Culture of Arabs with Israeli Citizenship\, Bedouin Law and the relationship between language and culture in Arabic and Hebrew. Mendelsohn also lectures on the history and relationship between Middle East countries and militant organizations. Dr. Mendelsohn holds advanced degrees in diverse fields: a Ph.D. in Classics/Linguistics and an M.A. in Archaeology/Linguistics from Concordia University in Montreal. Dr. Mendelsohn is the recipient of one of Canada’s highest academic honors: the Trudeau Prize. From 2005-2012 he was the Israel Academic Director of Givat Haviva\, the national education center of the Kibbutz Federation. He has working fluency in 5 languages and working knowledge of two others plus Middle Egyptian (Hieroglyphics). He lives in Jerusalem with his wife Ronny and their 3 children.

SUMMARY:The Layers of the Moroccan Jewish Experience: Session 4 - The Jews of Morocco: Yesterday\, Today\, and Tomorrow
DESCRIPTION:The Layers of the Moroccan Jewish Experience \nSession 4: The Jews of Morocco: Yesterday\, Today\, and Tomorrow \nSunday August 31\, 2025 – 10:00am on Zoom \nIn 1948\, the creation of the state of Israel\, motivated many Jews to leave Morocco – a land they had inhabited for many centuries – and move to Israel. By 1964\, more than 97\,000 Jews had left Morocco\, mainly to Israel where they presently number around 1\,000\,000 Jews of Moroccan descent.  Today there are about 2500 Jews living in Morocco\, mostly in Casablanca. The community has good relations with the current ruler\, King Mohamed VI who encourages religious tolerance and who strives to uphold the legacy of tolerance demonstrated by King Mohammed V during the Holocaust. \nWe will ask and attempt to answer the oft-repeated question: If the Jews had it so good\, why did they ever leave Morocco? \nClick here to register! \nThis lecture series is for members only. \n  \nAbout the Series \nWe are excited to be able to share this lecture series\, The Layers of the Moroccan Jewish Experience\, with our entire congregation. The series will be presented by Dr. David Mendelsohn. We are thrilled that Dr. Mendelsohn will also be joining us on our congregational trip to Morocco in the fall\, in addition to our local guide\, to bring added depth to our learning as we travel the country together. \nDr. Mendelsohn’s areas of expertise include Islamic Studies\, History and Culture of Arabs with Israeli Citizenship\, Bedouin Law and the relationship between language and culture in Arabic and Hebrew. Mendelsohn also lectures on the history and relationship between Middle East countries and militant organizations. Dr. Mendelsohn holds advanced degrees in diverse fields: a Ph.D. in Classics/Linguistics and an M.A. in Archaeology/Linguistics from Concordia University in Montreal. Dr. Mendelsohn is the recipient of one of Canada’s highest academic honors: the Trudeau Prize. From 2005-2012 he was the Israel Academic Director of Givat Haviva\, the national education center of the Kibbutz Federation. He has working fluency in 5 languages and working knowledge of two others plus Middle Egyptian (Hieroglyphics). He lives in Jerusalem with his wife Ronny and their 3 children.
