Highly, highly recommending putting Noor Inayat Khan on your radar if you are not familiar with her. Arthur Magida, author of her biography, Code Name, Madeleine will be giving a talk tomorrow. Although Noor wasn’t Jewish her story and courage during WWII is not one to miss. (She was engaged to a Jewish musician if that counts for Jewish association.) She has given me so much hope. The author is wonderful and beautifully tells Noor’s story. If you are around tomorrow I recommend this program.
***************************************** To commemorate Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day), join us 7 pm, Thursday, April 8 for a Zoom talk/discussion on Noor Inayat Khan, the centerpiece of my book, CODE NAME MADELEINE: A SUFI SPY IN NAZI-OCCUPIED PARIS. What motivated a spiritually inclined young woman to fight Nazis? What accounts for her incredible courage? We'll find out... Sponsored by Am Kolel Jewish Renewal Community, Washington DC.
