Refugees and National Socialism
The Centre for the Movement of People at Aberystwyth University invites you to attend:
‘Refugees from National Socialism in Wales: Learning from the Past for the Future’
Location: Ground Floor Exhibition Space
Date: 8 June 2023, 5 - 7pm
This exhibition traces the history of refugees in Wales from the 1930s until the present day. It tells the stories of those who fled from National Socialism in Central Europe to find sanctuary, drawing parallels with modern-day refugees.
It includes artworks, objects, photographs, and literature created by refugees and those working alongside them, plus an exhibition film created by filmmaker Amy Daniel that explores the lives of refugees past and present.
Through this material, we hope to interrogate the refugee experience in Wales by asking questions about the diversity of Welsh society, religious and linguistic differences, and social, educational and economic challenges.
