"We Refugees" by Hannah Arendt

Hannah Arendt was among the defining philosophers of the 20th century. CHF brings her work to life in a staged reading of her essay “We Refugees.” Grounded in her own experience as a German Jew in America, Arendt challenges us to imagine the world from an immigrant’s perspective. Lifeline and TimeLine Theatres’ dramaturg Maren Robinson and actor Mechelle Moe give voice to this essential text.
