  Hebrew College)
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, March 19\, 7:00pm (in person)\n\nat Hebrew College\,
  1860 Washington Street\, Newton \nHiding in Holland: A Resistant Memoir\
 nJoin us on Thursday\, March 19\, 2026 for a free book talk with Dr. Shula
 mit Reinharz about the book Hiding in Holland: A Resistance Memoir\, which
  she penned with her father Max Rothschild. Together\, they tell the story
  of a Jewish man who saved his life repeatedly during the Holocaust\, even
 tually being hidden by Dutch Righteous Gentiles for three years. Hiding in
  Holland presents Max’s roller-coaster ride of living and almost dying i
 n Holland\, exploring in depth what it meant to be an onderduiker. What wa
 s it like to hide in a brothel or with someone you didn’t like? What was
  it like to switch hiding locations repeatedly? How did outsiders help? Ho
 w did hiders deal with Nazi raids? And how did Max retain his sanity?\n\nM
 ax answers these questions by offering a new definition of “resistance
 ” understood in terms of the Jewish person’s experience. Shulamit intr
 oduces historical contexts that challenge the exaggerated stereotypes of t
 he valorous Dutch. Together\, this inner and outer perspective helps expla
 in why the Netherlands had the worst record of Jewish annihilation of all 
 Western European countries. Only now are Dutch government leaders acknowle
 dging the truth.\n\nEvent Co-Hosts\nSusan Harris\nAnnette Miller\nSuzanne
