Synopsis

As we mark the 75 th anniversary of the liberation of Nazi-era concentration camps, a new exhibit at Florida Gulf Coast University’s Wilson G. Bradshaw Library documents the little-known rescue of survivors from an all-female Nazi camp. “ To Life: The Liberation of Ravensbrück ” explores how the Swedish Red Cross liberated about 15,500 survivors from the camp in what’s been dubbed the “ White Bus Rescue ” in 1945.
