| This article analyses a single strand of national, community and personal priorities from the mid 1930s to the early 1940s when local community networks, composed mainly of women, supported refugees from the Nazis in activities that became a central part of many women's lives. The stand these women took against anti-Semitism in British society meant that their views and behaviour were in opposition to a dominant element in patriotic discourse. Yet, these women were often pillars of their local communities. This article teases out the motives of women who were willing to run the gauntlet of local hostility in order to bring refugees into their homes and communities. | |
