Lunch Hour Lectures - Spring 2011 - Episode 12: Lisbon, 1939-45: the untold story of Portugal and the Jewish refugees During World War II, Portugal was frantically trying to hold on to its self-proclaimed wartime neutrality, but was increasingly caught in the middle of the economic, and naval wars between the Allies and the Nazis. To complicate matters further, thousands of refugees, many of them Jewish, flooded into Lisbon seeking a passage to the United States or Palestine. This talk will present the little known, and yet vitally important history of the Portuguese capital, Lisbon, during World War II. Vintage Poscasts - Lunch Hour Lectures
