Lappin Foundation invites you to join us for a film screening and discussion of From Swastika to Jim Crow, the little-known story of Jewish scholars who fled to the United States from Nazi Germany. Confronted with American antisemitism and unable to find employment in major universities, a surprising number found an unexpected refuge: teaching at traditionally Black colleges in the segregated South.
