I Am Free…But Who Is Left? (Joanne W. Rudof, 2021, DCP, 92 mins)
Joanne W. Rudof in person! Reflective, first-person accounts of the Nazi invasion of a small Polish town are supplemented by family photos and historical documents in this recent documentary by a long-time archivist at Yale’s Fortunoff Archive. Presented by the Fortunoff Video Archive for Holocaust Testimonies and the Yale Film Archive. Co-sponsored by the Yale Program for the Study of Antisemitism.
Professor Michael Steinlauf will talk with Professor Marci Shore about his recently published book, This Was Not America: A Wrangle Through Jewish-Polish-American History.
During the Holocaust, a handful of non-Jewish people risked their lives to save the targeted and condemned. While a few, such as Oskar Schindler and Raoul Wallenberg, have received international attention for their valor, Yad Vashem, the memorial to the Holocaust in Israel, has recognized some 27,000 who risked their lives to save Jews with a special garden in Jerusalem.

This talk will examine the place of fantasies of national purity in selected authoritarian states from Mussolini to the present, and how racial legislation and propaganda, such as that directed at Jews, factors into this larger context. We will look at the three timeframes and states of mind strongman leaders leverage: utopia, nostalgia, and crisis.
