FRIDAY MARCH 2, 2012 1:00 to 2:30 P.M.* at YIVO Institute for Jewish Research,  15 West 16th Street, NY, NY 10011

I would like to describe this state within a state, or rather city within a city, this most underground of all underground communities, whose members met with each other, worked and talked in the midst of a population which didn’t suspect anything; where every street, every coffee shop, every tram stop called to mind dozens of unique adventures. Every name was false, every word that was uttered carried a double meaning, and every telephone conversation was more encrypted than the secret diplomatic documents of embassies.”

This diary was written in Polish when Basia (Batya), and her husband Dr. Adolf- Abraham Berman, lived on the Aryan side of Warsaw—the part designated by the Nazis for Polish Christians only—and led a secret network helping thousands of Jews to hide and survive.
