Between the 1933 Nazi seizure of power and their 1941 prohibition
on all Jewish emigration, around 90,000 German Jews moved to the
United States. Using the texts and images from a personal archive,
this Palgrave Pivot explores how these refugees made sense of that
experience. For many German Jews, theirs was not just a story of
flight and exile; it was also one chapter in a longer history of
global movement, experienced less as an estrangement from
Germanness, than a reiteration of the mobility central to it.
Private photography allowed these families to position themselves
in a context of fluctuating notions of Germaness, and resist the
prescribed disentanglement of their Jewish and German identities.
In opening a unique window onto refugees' own sense of self as they
moved across different geographical, political, and national
environments, this book will appeal to readers interested in Jewish
life and migration, visual culture, and the histories of National
Socialism and the Holocaust.
