Description
With her new book, “The Light of Days: The Untold Story of Women Resistance Fighters in Hitler’s Ghettos,” author Judy Batalion has written one of the most important stories of World War II. When the Nazis occupied Poland, many Jewish women joined the resistance and risked their lives to sabotage the regime. Batalion, who spent 12 years putting the book together, joins the B'nai B'rith podcast with CEO Dan Mariaschin to highlight this crucial but often overlooked story of defiance. Director Steven Spielberg has already optioned the book for a motion picture and signed Batalion to co-write the screenplay.
