from The Documentary Podcast · host BBC World Service

Sepharad is the Hebrew word for Spain and Jews who trace their ancestry there are called Sephardic Jews. Five hundred years ago they were expelled from Spain.

Michael Goldfarb goes on a journey from the past to the present in search of Sepharad.
