ABSTRACT
With Adolf Hitler´s promotion
and the National Socialism under the German power in 1933 - and until 1945 -,
European Jews went through a process of exclusion, rejection, expulsion and
destruction into the German society. Colombia, on this hand, received only
about 6,000 Jewish travelers , which constituted the largest wave of immigrants
of Jewish origin in the country, given that it has not been - since its
formation - a state of immigrants.This article serves as purpose to show
evidence of some actions developed in Colombia, during the period from 1939 to
1948, against the Jewish communities that were settled in the country, and were
victims of the emergence of an anti-Semitismlocal. The exaltation of their
voices is a constant purpose, as a way of "doing justice" to these
victims of the Shoah, in which Colombia made a small, but still significant,
contribution.
KEYWORDS
antisemitism, jewish migration to Colombia, Second World War.
