Description:
Rescue during the Holocaust was rare and undertaken at great risk to both the rescuer and those being rescued. One of the most well-known rescue attempts during the era of the Holocaust was that of the Frank family in Amsterdam. Join Program Manager Jennifer Goss as she provides classroom-ready resources and student activities to explore what motivated female rescuers with a focus on Miep Gies and her choice to partake in the rescue efforts for those in the Secret Annex. This webinar connects to the Rescue and Righteous Among the Nations unit and Student Activities on the Echoes & Reflections website.

Set in Berlin, this gripping biopic follows Martha Liebermann, an upper-class widow who could never have imagined having to leave her beloved homeland at the age of 85. As a German Jew in 1943, however, her only choice is to go abroad or wait to be deported to a concentration camp. For now, the reputation and valuable pictures by her world-famous artist husband Max Liebermann still give her protection. Martha’s friends pressure her into an illegal sale to finance her escape with a resistance group. But the Gestapo sees an opportunity to set a trap for the courageous opponents of the regime.Martha Liebermann: A Stolen Life
