Sephardic Jewish genealogy and history. Trace your roots in the diaspora story of the Sephardim - Jews expelled from Spain and Portugal. This channel explores the three Sephardic groups: Ottoman communities in Turkey, Greece, Balkans; Moroccan Megorashim; and the Western/Portuguese Jews who settled in Amsterdam, London, New York, Jamaica, Curaçao, the Caribbean and elsewhere.
Talks on genetic genealogy tools like yDNA, autosomal DNA testing and the AI transcription platform Transkribus. Learn about Sephardic liturgical music, cultural traditions, as well as erroneous claims of Jewish pirates, Ashkenazim of Sephardic ancestry, crypto-Jews, bnei anusim, and Sephardic surnames. Primary focus is on the Western Sephardim – the community that survived the Spanish and Portuguese inquisitions and later formed a global diaspora.
