Reflections on Half a Century

Growing up a "baby boomer" in NY in 1955; through the 50s, 60s,70s, married in 1977, raising 3 children, working 30 years, my beloved wife dying in 2001, earning a graduate degree, now a single parent and my poetry being published, is the inspiration behind Reflections on Half a Century. Other "Baby Boomers, a population that numbers over 80 million in 2009 will relate to Reflections on Half A Century. This meaningful chapbook chronicles five decades of my life, giving rise to emotions that many of us are not able to express into words.

Remnants of Crypto-Jews Among Hispanic Americans

by Gloria Golden

Hidden deep in the heart of the American Southwest among the larger Hispanic population are descendants of the Sephardim, Jews from Spain and Portugal. Five hundred years after their expulsion from Spain remnants of Judaism are still practiced within Southwestern Hispanic communities. Often unaware of their origins, conversos have revealed, through oral history, how the ancestral faith of the Crypto-Jews has been passed on from generation to generation.

The book contains sixty oral histories accompanied by photographs. All research was accomplished in New Mexico and El Paso, Texas. Publisher: Floricanto Press-2005.

Recommended by a friend. Tracing my family history. This book explained many traditions in my family I didn't understand. Now I feel more connected to my past.

Buy the book! Remnants of Crypto Jews by Mrs. Golden has many personal stories of people of the SW, who are finding out about their Jewish heritage and why they do certain things, which are indeed old customs- Jewish ones. Excellent book by a wonderful author, I personally know and trust.

We enjoyed the exhibit. I brought my children. I wanted them to know more about our heritage. I'm Mexican, from Northern Mexico, the Monterrey area. My mother always told us wet were "de descendencia Judia." We were all raised Catholic. My children are Jews. Your exhibit was a nice connection. I would love to learn more.

Excellent—and beautifully presented. We came down from Marin County to see this important exhibit.

Gloria exhibits and gives slide presentations based on this book. There will be an upcoming slide presentation at the Gomez Mill House, August 5, 2012. Luis Gomez, a Sephardic Jew, a merchant and trader, was the first owner of this house.

Express your feelings and stories about your heritage from Spain and Portugal on Gloria's Remnants of Crypto-Jews Among Hispanic Americans Facebook page.
