Next Wed, May 4th, Benjamin Hirsch will be the guest of Fulton Lodge No. 216 F. & A. M.
Shortly after the devastating Kristallnacht in Germany in 1938, author Benjamin Hirsch’s mother sends him and his four older siblings on a Kindertransport to Paris from Frankfurt, Germany. After almost three years of hiding in France, they escape through Spain to Portugal where they board a ship and arrive in the United States on two separate convoys, eventually settling in Atlanta, Georgia. But Hirsch’s parents and his younger siblings are not so fortunate—they perish in Auschwitz at the hands of the Nazis.
Worshipful Master Jeffrey Krieger and Fulton Lodge No. 216 invite you and your guests to join us for an evening of history and awakening to the perils of anti-Semitism.
