Explore the vast differences in how ordinary people displayed great courage or willful complicity in the face of devastating violence during the rise of Hitler’s Germany. Neighbors made choices. Some took risks, while others stood idle as friends, neighbors, and colleagues were victimized.

Join us for the DC premiere of The Last Twins, a documentary chronicling the incredible true story of Erno “Zvi” Spiegel, who protected dozens of twins at the Auschwitz-Birkenau killing center.

Learn about the surprisingly widespread individual resistance that obliterates the common view of Jewish passivity under Nazi persecution.

After the war, when Al reunited with his mother at three and a half years old, he did not remember her. Watch Al talk about his experiences and what happened to the rest of his family. 

In these troubling times, amid the continuing surge in antisemitism—tragically including deadly violence—our community must stand together to advance the Museum’s critical mission. With your support, we combat dangerous conspiracy theories and Holocaust distortion, while inspiring new generations within and beyond our walls to confront antisemitism today.

Join us to hear about the Museum’s work to unravel the mystery of this remarkable collection now in its care and discover what we’ve learned so far about the family who left it behind.
