As much as war is about armed military conflict, it is also fundamentally about mass displacement, broken lives, and lost futures. This simple truth has become way too obvious in large parts of Poland, where providing food, clothes and shelter to strangers, and collecting donations to help refugees from neighboring Ukraine have become common practices among “ordinary” people. Much of the efforts of this grassroots mass mobilization to help those escaping their war-torn country falls on the shoulders of various parts of society, including individual activists and non-activists as well as civil society organizations.
What is perhaps less visible in this civil society mobilization and its media coverage are the efforts of migrant and minority communities that do their share in offering relief to those fleeing from Ukraine.
Zu Beginn der Ausstellung fällt der Blick auf zwei Fotografien. Sie sind prominent inmitten des einleitenden Wandtextes im Eingangsbereich platziert, der Ausstellungsbesucher:innen ebenso empfängt wie Angestellte des Dubnow-Instituts oder Menschen, die in der Goldschmidtstraße 28 in Leipzig anderweitig arbeiten oder zu Besuch sind. Erstere bleiben stehen, lernen, welche Rolle die beiden Bilder spielen und in welchem Kontext sie stehen, nehmen wohl an einer Führung von Julia Roos oder Monika Heinemann teil, beide vom Dubnow-Institut, die neben Agnieszka Kajczyk vom Jüdischen Historischen Institut in Warschau die Kuratorinnen der Ausstellung sind.
