This is a very sad story.
https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-27373131 On 13 May 1939, more than 900 Jews fled Germany aboard a luxury cruise liner, the SS St Louis. They hoped to reach Cuba and then travel to the US - but were turned away in Havana and forced to return to Europe, where more than 250 were killed by the Nazis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9LeL7aPMsE ...

There are accounts of German citizens not even knowing concentration camps existed just a few miles from their town, and I believe it honestly. If someone set up a camp in the woods outside my city I'd never know. --- o7 Let strength be granted so the world might be mended. ... Copied to Clipboard!
