Please join your 6T+ community for an evening with Baltimorean author Arthur Magida of recently published, Two Wheels to Freedom: The Story of a Young Jew, Wartime Resistance, and a Daring Escape.
The true story of Cioma Schonhaus, a 20-year old Jew who forged papers for hundreds of Jews while hiding in Berlin, bought a sailboat though he never sailed before, sabotaged weapons, had lots of girlfriends, dined at snazzy restaurants and fashionable bars (while “hiding”), and bicycled 600 miles to Switzerland as the Gestapo was closing in on him. Switzerland took him in though it sent 27,000 Jews back to Germany.
This event will be available to attend via zoom or in person at Bolton Street Synagogue. If you select the zoom option, the link will be sent out to you the afternoon of the event.
Light Snacks & Drinks will be available at the event.
