These people are secret or crypto-Jews and are the descendants of the Secret Jews (Anusim in Hebrew), Jews who were forced to convert to Christianity during the Inquisition in Spain. Many fled Spain for Portugal, North and South America, and many other countries to escape the depredations and brutality of the Inquisition. The International Institute for Secret Jews Studies investigates this unique phenomenon, and where possible, tries to rescue these descendants and help reunite them with their stolen Jewish legacy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/sefardi-anousim.org.il\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Institute for Sefardi and Anousim Studies (ISAS)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> at Netanya Academic College in Israel was created in response to the incredible phenomenon of the descendants of the forced converts (Anousim) in medieval Spain and Portugal awakening to their Jewish heritage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ISAS promotes research on the historical and contemporary development of the crypto-Jews of Iberian origin, as well as other groups such as the Mashadis of Iran. We offer seminars, courses, and conferences to educate the public about this phenomenon and its contemporary ramifications in Israel and around the world. We also offer assistance to those seeking confirmation of their Jewish ancestry through genealogical research.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/archive.constantcontact.com\/fs005\/1101290164708\/archive\/1101991066036.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sephardim Hope International <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is a benevolent international non-profit organization to bring the message of the Sephardic Anusim Jews (the descendants of the forcibly converted ones) from Spain to the awareness of the Jews, Gentiles, and the world.
