In diesem Projekt stehen der Alltag und die Verfolgungserfahrungen von „Mischehefamilien“ während des NS-Regimes in Wien in Zentrum. Im Kontext nationalsozialistischer Rassenideologie stellten Ehen zwischen Jüdinnen oder Juden und Nichtjuden sowie deren „halbjüdische“ Nachkommen eine Bedrohung für die Integrität des NS-Regimes dar.
