The Choice to Resist: What Our Relatives Did During The Nazi Occupation of The Netherlands in World War II In-Person
A presentation and discussion led by descendants Margot Smit & André van Hall
Our family members were regular people leading regular lives when Hitler’s Nazi Regime took over the country in 1940. We will share the contents of a trunk of wartime items, tell the stories of our family's involvement during the 5 year of the war, and lead a discussion encouraging the audience to ponder: What choice might you have made? What might you choose to do or not do if it happened here?
