Thoughts on Jewish Refugees in Shanghai

Post Published September 23, 2019 by Alicia Xin

When people think about the Holocaust and Jewish refugees during WWII, they rarely think about Shanghai. For a long time, I didn’t even know Shanghai was open to Jewish refugees at that time.

It is Saturday morning, and Nellie yawns as she wakes up from her bed. The air feels crisp and cold in her room. It hurts to breathe. Hopefully dad just turned off the heater last night, and can turn it back on again today. Last time, the power company shut off our heat, and it took a long time to get it turned back on. Those were very cold days.

Today we showered. We always all shower with our cold water, on the first Sunday of the month. This Sunday is particularly special though, because it is also the first day of 2186, which means we will look through our family photo album!

I had never liked the ocean, and that was before I fell off the boat and into it, headfirst. My dad and I were on one of his boating trips. He was a scientist on climate change, and every few months, he ventured out into the deep Pacific waters, and took a temperature of the water, with a tool called a thermometer.

The sky was smashing and attractive. It was the hue of tomatoes, marmalade and freshly picked lemons. Cumulus clouds were slowly drifting by and the sun was just about to go hiding behind the endless mountains.

Stars have long been an important part of human culture and science, from astronomy to fiction to "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star."
