I want more information about Alice Pels 1882-1963

Thanks for your question. We know that she was a Belgian socialist, pacifist, and anti-fascist. She was the secretary of the International Committee of Socialist Women and organized a Women's Congress Against War and Fascism. She was arrested in 1940 after the Nazi occupation of Belgium, but was released later that year and went into hiding. 

We will be conducting more research as we move through the documents.
