How did Jewish women acquire skills to fight oppression during the Holocaust? Trace their resistance to its roots in 19th-century anarchist groups, and interwar anti-fascist international Brigades. How can these women’s strategies be applied to contemporary battles? How can we move the archive into the streets? Zuzanna Hertzberg is a Polish-Jewish interdisciplinary artist, activist, and researcher. She is interested in the interweaving of individual and collective memory, the restitution of minority heritage, and the marginalization of uncomfortable narratives.
