Please join the Hadassah-Brandeis Institute for our second discussion in the Sandra Seltzer Silberman HBI Conversations Series as we speak with Judy Batalion, author of “The Light of Days: The Untold Story of Women Resistance Fighters in Hitler’s Ghettos.”

“Guns, grenades and espionage” are the words Judy Batalion uses to describe her thrilling dive into “Freuen in di Ghettos,” Yiddish for “Women in the Ghettos,” the blueprint for her new book, “The Light of Days: The Untold Story of Women Resistance Fighters in Hitler’s Ghettos.” Her book, soon to be the basis for a Steven Spielberg movie, reveals the previously untold stories of brave ghetto women who fought and fooled the Nazis.
