„Aber ich bitte Euch alle um das Eine: Schämt Euch unser nicht!“ Elisabeth Schumacher im Widerstand der ROTEN KAPELLE

In the organizer's words:

Reading & discussion with the author Katja Ostheimer

The graphic artist Elisabeth Schumacher belonged to a circle of friends and resistance fighters in Berlin that the Gestapo called the "Red Orchestra". It was a network that passed on information to the Allies and documented National Socialist crimes. Elisabeth Schumacher also tried to protect Jewish relatives from persecution.

Katja Ostheimer grew up near Elisabeth-Schumacher-Straße in Leipzig and wanted to find out more about this woman. At first, she could only find a few biographical details. But her fascination was so great that years of research followed and eventually a book was written.
