Bernard weinraub biography

THE STORY: The time is 1940. Hillel Kook arrives in the United States, fresh from the underground resistance to the British in Palestine. Under the alias Peter Bergson, he leads a small group of activists in seeking to rescue Jews threatened with destruction in Europe. Bergson is shocked to find his efforts blocked by the indifference and anti-Semitism in the Roosevelt administration and the fears and timidity of the Jewish establishment. Undaunted, Bergson and his colleagues organize a bold campaign to open the doors of the United States to Jews fleeing Hitler in a desperate race against time. Based on actual events, THE ACCOMPLICES is the true story of one man’s fight on American soil to shatter a conspiracy of silence and inaction in the face of genocide.

“This is a story that needs to be told, and Weinraub—a longtime New York Times reporter—does so with moving clarity. A substantial, punch-packing morality thriller. Don’t miss!” —Time Out New York.

“A gripping work that illuminates a shameful period in American history. Sharply written.
