Abstract
ABSTRACT This article addresses some of the entangled histories and memories that connect the Holocaust to sub-Saharan Africa. It focuses on communications between British policymakers in London and colonial administrators in eastern and western Africa and what they reveal about efforts to resettle some European Jews in Britain’s colonial empire, between 1933 and 1945. Attention is paid to the emotions of Jewish refugees in Europe as they confronted the prospect of exile in Africa, the experiences of those who settled there, their interactions with indigenous Africans, and the impact of the Holocaust on European colonialism in Africa.
