Pursuing My Family's Ghosts in Morocco
Journalist Irin Carmon travels to Morocco with her mother to trace her grandfather's childhood in Agadir, a city destroyed by an earthquake before he left for Israel. Their journey leads to a pilgrimage to a rabbi's grave in the desert, and to reflections on Morocco's shrinking Jewish communities and their ties to their Muslim neighbors.
