EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print captures a significant moment in the history of anti-Semitism in Algeria. In 1898, protests against Jewish communities erupted in Algiers, fueled by hatred and prejudice. However, amidst the chaos and violence, Governor General Louis Lepine stepped forward as a beacon of hope. As depicted in this illustration from the newspaper "Le-Pelerin" on February 6th, 1898, Governor General Lepine intervened to halt the looting of Jewish shops during these anti-Semitic demonstrations turned riots. His courageous act aimed to protect innocent lives and prevent further destruction. The image showcases the power of leadership and compassion even in times of turmoil. It serves as a reminder that individuals can make a difference when they stand up against discrimination and injustice. This photograph is not only an artistic representation but also an important historical document that sheds light on the struggles faced by Jewish communities at that time. It highlights both the dark side of human nature manifested through anti-Semitism and the potential for positive change through acts of bravery like those demonstrated by Governor General Lepine. Preserved within private collections today, this image continues to serve as a poignant reminder of past events while urging us to remain vigilant against all forms of bigotry in our present society.
