This article aims to sensitize our reader to the issue of forced migrations by Nazi violence that, from 1933 onwards, had consequences beyond Europe, including several countries in Latin America. Persecuted, frightened and humiliated by the national socialist state and collaborationist countries, the Jew had nowhere to go, as not all nations expressed the desire to adopt him as a citizen, as a human being bearing his own name and roots.
