Sephardi and Mizrahi Women in the United States

Jewish women with roots in medieval Spain, North Africa, and the Middle East have been part of American life since the sixteenth century. From the conversas who arrived in 1654, through the immigrants from around the world who arrived in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, through more recent immigrants and their descendants, Sephardi and Mizrahi women have played important roles in their own communities, in the broader Jewish world, and in the wider American society.
