Gendered Experiences of Forced Labor during World War II: Polish and Polish-Passing Laborers in the German Reich
Fri, November 22, 10:00 to 11:45am EST (10:00 to 11:45am EST), Boston Marriott Copley Place, Floor: 4th Floor, Grand Ballroom Salon HSession Submission Type: Panel
Brief Description
This panel assembles new archival research on the experiences of people coerced or recruited into forced labor in Germany during World War II or hiding as forced laborers. Building on existing scholarship, these papers offer new interpretations of aspects of the forced labor experience legible through a gendered lens. Resistance, evasion, exploitation, and survival all took gendered forms. The focus is on those identifying as Polish or Jews passing as Polish, in specific settings: households, cities, and rural areas.
