As countries adapt to changing political dynamics against the backdrop of COVID-19, what is at stake for the Jewish communities in Latin America? In this session, young Latin American leaders from Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil will discuss their Jewish communities’ responses to COVID-19, challenges to democracy in Latin America before and during the current crisis, and the differences between pandemic-induced antisemitism in the U.S. and Latin America.
