Hidden History: Recounting The Shanghai Jewish Story

Ongoing Exhibit

11AM-4PM

Venue:
The Breman
1440 Spring Street, NW, Atlanta, GA 30309
Event Description:

"Hidden History" explores the history of the diverse, resettled Jewish community in Shanghai, including Iraqi Jews who arrived in the mid-1800s, Russian Jews who fled pogroms at the turn of the century and German and Austrian Jews who desperately escaped the Nazis. With most countries limiting or denying entry to Jews during the 1930s, the free port of Shanghai became an unexpected safe haven for Jews fleeing the antisemitic policies and violence in Nazi-controlled Europe.
