Speaker Series: Roger Moorhouse

Historian Roger Moorhouse joins us to discuss the remarkable story of the Polish diplomats who, in collaboration with the Jewish resistance, masterminded a plan to forge passports and identity documents for Latin American countries, which were then used to save the lives of thousands of Jews facing persecution and extermination in the Holocaust.

This lesser known humanitarian act is the subject of Moorhouse’s book; The Forgers – the remarkable story of the Ładoś Group.
