About Aristides de Sousa Mendes
Aristides de Sousa Mendes (19 July 1885 – 3 April 1954) was a Portuguese diplomat who fought against his own government for the safety of Jews living in Europe in the early years of World War II. In the spring of 1940, he frantically issued Portuguese visas to thousands of refugees, Jews and non-Jews, seeking to escape Nazi-occupied France.
