Zusammenfassung:Between the 1860s & the early 1920s, more than 2,000,000 Jews moved from Eastern Europe to the US while smaller groups moved to other destinations, such as Western Europe, Palestine, & South Africa. During & after the First World War hundreds of thousands of Jews were permanently displaced across Eastern Europe. Migration restrictions that were imposed after 1914, especially in the US, prevented most from reaching safe havens, & an unknown but substantial number of Jews perished during the Holocaust - as they had been displaced in Eastern Europe years before they were deported to ghettos & killing sites. Even after the Holocaust, tens of thousands of Jewish survivors were stranded in permanent transit for many years. 'Between Borders' tells & contextualizes the stories of these Jewish migrants & refugees before & after the First World War
