Judith Winnick presents an extraordinary lecture about Ravensbrück, the only All Women’s Concentration Camp established by the Nazis during WWII. Torn from over 20 countries, imprisoned under horrific conditions, these women defied SS Authority when they conspired at great risk to commit imaginative acts of resistance. Heroic bonds of friendship fostered hope for survival: a survival never assured.
