St. Louis Kaplan Feldman Holocaust Museum presents “Nazi’s Next Door: St. Louis Faces Nazism in the 1930s” beginning Friday, June 12th. 

An original exhibition created by the St. Louis Kaplan Feldman Holocaust Museum, Nazis Next Door explores the ways in which Missourians, particularly St. Louisans, made the choice to support or resist Nazi ideas of extremism and antisemitism right here at home.

Through local narratives, historical records, and personal stories, many of which come directly from the Museum’s own Archives and Collections, this exhibition will challenge perceptions of our city’s history.  What did St. Louisans know about Nazism and Antisemitism? How were they getting that information? And what did they choose to do with it?  Looking forward, what responsibility do we have in the face of rising antisemitism and extremism?
