Hour of Need: The Daring Escape of the Danish Jews During World War II
Event Date and Time:
December 10 @ 4:30 pm - 6:30 pm
| When Nazis moved to round up Danish Jews in a surprise raid in 1943, families were forced to make life-and-death decisions to save their lives. Overnight, they became refugees at the mercy of strangers organizing their escape. Hour of Need is a tribute to these strangers – ordinary citizens who defied the Nazi regime – and how their heroic actions saved Danish Jews. Developed in partnership with Illinois Holocaust Museum & Education Center, Hour of Need shares the true story of how the people of an occupied nation risked their lives to evacuate their Jewish countrymen. This professional development is open to the public. |
