    Tan hermoso! Jews were active in the early Mexican movie and television industry, too. The present mayor of Mexico City is Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo.

    I am from Mexico and all of my ancestors as far as I can tell are from Mexico as well but I recently took a Dna ancestry test and it showed that 10 percent of my ancestry was from Ashkenazi Jewish descent so I’m curious if one of my ancestors was from one of these Mexican Jewish communities. I wish to visit these neighborhoods and synagogues soon!

    Glad you visited our city, R' Abramson. I'm a regular listener to your Jewish History in Daf Yomi series; they always brighten my day (and illuminate my daf!).

    Gorgeous + surprising! The art + architecture, Chagall stained glass… wow + the food court looks like a place I'd wanna hang out. Guess I shouldn't be so surprised that any big city in this hemisphere should have a thriving Jewish community, but that Mexican flavor + style is just super impressive. Love to see it 👏

    When I was little, I lived in a very Jewish neighborhood. Our neighbors two doors down were Jews from Mexico, the Greenberg. They were very fluent in Spanish, and had perfect Spanish accents. I don’t know how many generations they went back in Mexico. I met the cousins, also Jews from Mexico.
