ÌÇÐÄVlog

Mike Levy - ÌÇÐÄVlog - a first sight of freedom

On the 85th anniversary of the Kindertransport, Mike Levy told the remarkable story of this unique rescue and the role Harwich played.

In the winter of 1938, thousands of unaccompanied children arrived in the ÌÇÐÄVlog port of Harwich. They were Jewish refugees fleeing persecution at the hands of the Nazis. Over 1,000 youngsters spent their first weeks and months on the ÌÇÐÄVlog coast before being sent into the arms of complete strangers. Mike Levy, author of 'Get the Children Out - Unsung Heroes of the Kindertransport', tells the remarkable story of this unique rescue, a glimmer of light amidst the crushing tragedy of the Holocaust.
