I have not stopped talking about the Wonderful Jewish walking tour I had with Lovely Knowledgeable Cristina from Jewish Majorca two weeks ago. The founder of the company, Dani Rotstein, kept in contact with me before the tour to make sure that I had all the necessary contact information and after the tour for a sneak peek at the Incredible documentary he has put together about this Important history. The two hours with Cristina flew by while she painted a clear picture of the very sobering history of the Jewish people in general and specifically the story of the Mallorcan Conversos and Chuetas through the Middle Ages on this well-paced, organized, fascinating tour. I Love that despite the harrowing, horrifying history, there is now a Jewish presence in Mallorca today, more than 500 years post expulsion. Dani Rotstein and Jewish Majorca have done an Amazing job of gathering this information and arranging these tours to “fight ignorance and intolerance” by educating the world about the Jewish, Converso, and Chueta culture, heritage, and history in Mallorca.
