Join us as Dr. Kyle Ward examines the diverse responses of the Nordic countries—Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Finland—during the Shoah and how these historical actions continue to shape the national identities and contemporary politics of these countries today.

An accomplished author, he has penned seven books, with his latest focusing on a Norwegian American unit that participated in World War II.
