SUMMARY:Virtual Student and Teacher Talk: Refugees from Nazism in Britain
DESCRIPTION:This event is organised for Refugee Week 2024. \nIn Europe in the 1930s and 1940s\, economic and political breakdown and the rise of extremist politics turned citizens into refugees. From 1933 onwards\, Jews fled Nazi persecution in Germany and later Austria\, Czechoslovakia and Poland. By 1946\, war\, genocide and forced population movements had created millions of refugees. \nAround 80\,000 Jewish refugees arrived to the UK between 1933 and 1945. Aimed at GCSE and A-Level students\, this talk will utilise sources from the Library’s unique archive to trace some of the journeys made by these 80\,000 refugees\, focusing on ‘ordinary’ people. It will also explore British responses to these refugees\, including governmental actions and the activities of community and voluntary organisations. \nThis session is suitable for those studying the following: \nKS3 & KS4 History: \n\nAQA: Germany\, 1890 – 1945: Democracy and Dictatorship\nEdexcel: Weimar and Nazi Germany\, 1918 – 1939\nOCR (History A): Germany\, 1925-1955: The People and The State\nOCR (History B): Living under Nazi Rule\, 1933 – 1945\n\nKS5 History: \n\nAQA: Democracy and Nazism: Germany\, 1918 – 1945\nEdexcel: Germany and West Germany\, 1918 – 1989\nOCR: Democracy and Dictatorships in Germany 1919 – 1963\n\nVirtual Event guidelines: \n\nThe Library will send you a Zoom link and joining instructions via email prior to the event.
