In Mein Kampf, Hitler wrote that "We must also do away with the conception that the treatment of the body is the affair of every individual."

Waitstill Sharp, a young Unitarian minister, and his wife, Martha, a social worker, accepted a mission from the American Unitarian Association: They were to leave their home and young children in Wellesley, Massachusetts, and travel to Prague, Czechoslovakia, to help address the mounting refugee crisis. Armed with only $40,000, the Sharps quickly learned the art of spy craft and covertly sheltered political dissidents and Jews and helped them escape the Nazis.

"Hoffentlich holt der nicht mehr lange Luft." Oder: "Gleich in die Fresse schlagen." Beleidigungen, offener Hass und Gewaltandrohungen dieser Art gehören zum Alltag von Jakob Springfeld.

Massaquoi’s life in Hamburg during the height of Hitler’s regime. Hans is the son of a Black Liberian diplomat father and a white German mother.
