Author Talk: Flight From the Reich:
Jewish Refugees, 1933-1945

1933-1945

Sunday, December 11, 4pm



No cover charge

Join us for a fascinating discussion with Professor Deborah Dwork, author of Flight from the Reich:  Jewish Refugees, 1933-1945, which focuses on the ever dwindling choices open to those seeking to flee Nazi occupation and the often painful decisions of the people who dealt with them—consuls, immigration officers, church, health, and social workers.  The role of Shanghai as a sanctuary will be examined as well as the other avenues for escape open to those in need.
