Where did 20,000 Jews hide from the Holocaust? In Shanghai
Abstract
In the late 1930s, as the Nazis stepped up their persecution of German and Austrian Jews, many countries in the West severely limited the number of visas they granted to refugees. But there was one place refugees could go without even obtaining a visa: Shanghai. An exhibit in New York explores a little-known chapter of World War II.
