A story about how a people can collectively mobilize to help fellow citizens in need. The story also has great interest and significance outside of Denmark, as it is a lone light in the darkness of the Holocaust. Listen as Denmark's ambassador to Israel, Anne Dorte Riggelsen, talks about how the story of the rescue of the Danish Jews is communicated outside of Denmark, and what significance the story has for diplomatic work.
