This mini-unit explores the experiences of Jewish communities in Morocco, Algeria, Libya, and Tunisia before and during World War II and the Holocaust. Through primary sources, personal reflections, and historical context, students examine the impact of colonialism, antisemitic laws, and Nazi influence in North Africa. The guide highlights voices often left out of traditional Holocaust curricula and encourages critical thinking about identity, dignity, and resistance.
