The History of the South African Jews: From The Pale to Pretoria … Carrying a Small Suitcase Filled with Courage, Faith and Hope – Part 2
In this continuation of Ralph Cilevitz’s presentation of 01 June 2025, he tells the story of Jewish immigrants who journeyed from the cities and shtetls of the Pale of Settlement to the cities and dorpies at the southern tip of Africa. Most arrived young, alone, and with little more than their determination and quiet strength. Ralph explores how thousands of Jewish families built new lives and preserved their faith and hope while adapting to unfamiliar places and languages. He offers a vivid look at courage, migration, resilience, and community. More details
