- Southwest Colorado may still be a vast maze of dirt roads and windy passes without the innovative thinking of Otto Mears, the "Pathfinder of the San Juans." From the philanthropists behind National Jewish Hospital for Consumptives, to Leadville's thriving mining community, this episode discovers the significant achiviements and history-making advancements by Colorado's Jewish population.

My great-grandfather, a Christian immigrant from Russia (his grave is at the Russian Orthodox Church of the Transfiguration in Globeville), arrived in Denver in 1913 - he spoke Russian, Polish & German, but not English. It was his Jewish neighbors and Jewish business-owners in the West Colfax neighborhood who helped him set up what became the family business. He never forgot, and our family has never forgotten that support.
Fantastic look back at history, I don’t think I will ever understand the prejudice and vilification suffered by the Jewish religion or communities, that are just hard working and principled people, glad to see that America and Colorado was good for them. Thanks for sharing this interesting and informative documentary film 🎥😊👍🇬🇧🏴
Thank you for taking the time to produce this, and to share this; I had no idea.
Thank you so much I loved this video I converted Judaism approximately six years ago I am very interested and I live in Colorado half my life so I found this extremely interesting
Welcome ✡️✡️🇮🇱🇮🇱❤️ ‘
Fascinating. Looking at our collective world ancestry, it is important to keep history alive. The story of how we all came out of Africa, and long before that, the ocean, indeed in a long and winding road.
we live in Longmont, Colorado. i think we are the only Jewish pioneers here.
Loved this
I have to tell ya, all my life and especially when I was growing up in the fifties and sixties, as well as taught historically, the story of the "Colorado Jews" has been the only story I've seen and heard everywhere I've ever been. Huh.
We had H. Moses and son in Trinidad. A clothing store.
Temple Aaron, oldest synagogue in Colorado, is in Trinidad.
Very recommendable
when I went to Cripple Creek, and upon using the restroom (WC), I saw 3 signs, in English, Swedish, and Finnish! (nothing to do with Jewish pioneers), In 48 I had a Palestinian friend and in another school, I had a Jewish friend.
In 1948, a Palestinian was a Jewish person. The Land of Israel was referred to as Palestine, and the Jewish people born there, on their birth certificate (or passports) were identified as "Palestinian." See movie "Exodus" with Paul Newman.
I'm so happy I miss read the title! Thought it said Colorado Experience: Jewish Prisoners.
Wait. What? In Colorado? What the *click*
Oh wait. Nevermind.
