La America

La America was a Judeo-Spanish (Ladino) language weekly newspaper, published 1910–1923 as a national Sephardi Jewish newspaper in the United States.[1][2] It was edited by Moise S. Gadol.[1][2] Marc D. Angel counts it as one of the two most important such publications historically, the other being La Vara.[1]
