On Monday, August 25, Chief Rabbi Isaac Sacca welcomed writer Javier Leibiusky at the Sephardic Community of Buenos Aires. He is the author of ‘Del Bósforo a Villa Crespo: Primera ola de inmigración judeoespañola de Oriente a la Argentina (1876-1930) [‘From the Bosphorus to Villa Crespo: The First Wave of Judeo-Spanish Immigration from the East to Argentina (1876–1930)].’
In a warm gathering, the author presented his book and emphasized the importance of his research for preserving the historical memory of Judeo-Spanish immigration and strengthening the cultural identity of the community.
Members of the Sephardic Community, whose ancestors were part of the first wave of Judeo-Spanish immigration to Argentina, were present.
During the presentation, the work was highlighted as a historical and academic testimony that rescues the roots and contributions of the first Sephardic generations who arrived in Argentina.
This book by Javier Leibiusky constitutes a cultural and academic legacy for our community.
