BUENOS AIRES, Argentina Mercado Libre, Latin America’s largest online retailer, is purging anti-Semitic objects it previously listed for sale from its store.
The company is removing books such as “Mein Kampf” and “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” in addition to other Nazi coins, posters and memorabilia.
On Feb. 11, the retailer publicized an agreement it signed with a regional branch of the World Jewish Congress to work to fight anti-Semitism. As part of a joint strategy, both organizations will work to identify other publications on the platform that incite racial hatred speeches.
