In case you missed it: "A Privileged Marriage," WWII love story on Boing Boing Video

Xeni Jardin 10:19 am Tue Jan 5, 2010

If you took a break from your normal daily blog diet over the holidays, you may have missed a special episode of Boing Boing Video, embedded above: A Privileged Marriage. On the eve of the Third Reich, a young woman of Jewish descent married a non-Jewish man, the heir to a prominent brewing family. The Nazis would later ban marriage between Jews and non-Jews, but classified theirs as a "privileged marriage." That decree saved her life while millions died. Her name is Elizabeth Pschorr, and she tells us her story in this video.

Original Boing Boing blog post, with photos and a message from her grandson.
