In this presentation, Omar Lamghibchi will examine the complex dynamics of Jewish-Muslim relations in Tétouan, Morocco, often referred to by Jews as "the small Jerusalem," from the late 15th century to the mid-20th century, framing it within periods of coexistence, cooperation, and tension. Dr. Lamghibchi will critically analyze archival records and oral testimonies to disentangle the intricate nature of Jewish life in Tétouan, from the myriad challenges faced to the great contributions made toward Moroccan society. The presentation will deepen our understanding of Tétouan’s Jewish heritage and show the importance of cultural pluralism.
