Martha and Waitstill Sharp, American Unitarian aide workers, helped thousands of Jews, intellectuals, and children in , Lisbon, and southern France in 1939–1940. In recognition of the risks they took to assist Jews, , the Holocaust Martyrs' and Heroes' Remembrance Authority in Israel, honored the Sharps as Righteous Among the Nations in 2006. Key Facts. Waitstill Sharp, a Unitarian minister, and his wife Martha, a social worker, spent six months in Prague in 1939, distributing money and helping intellectuals escape to the United States. After narrowly escaping arrest in Prague and returning to the United States, the couple traveled to Lisbon and southern France to distribute food, and to help Jews and intellectuals escape. Martha organized a transport of children to the United States, which became a model for later transports of child refugees. Martha and Waitstill Sharp became the second and third Americans honored by Yad Vashem as Righteous Among the Nations, a distinction granted to non-Jews who risked their lives to save Jews during the Holocaust. Twitter Facebook Cite Print. Introduction. Waitstill Sharp was born in 1902, and graduated from Harvard Law School in 1926. Martha Ingham Dickie was born in 1905, and studied social work at Northwestern University, training at Jane Addams’ famous Hull House settlement. The couple met in 1927 and married a year later. Waitstill returned to Harvard, where he graduated from the Divinity School in 1933 and was ordained as a Unitarian minister. After a brief post in Meadville, Pennsylvania, where Martha gave birth to the couple’s two children, Waitstill Hastings and Martha Content, the couple moved to a new congregation in Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts. The Munich Pact. Almost immediately after the Nazi seizure of power in 1933, Germany began to demand the “return” of the ethnic German population of —and the land on which it lived—to the German Reich. By the late summer of 1938, Hitler insisted upon the annexation of the Sudetenland, a border area of Czechoslovakia containing a majority ethnic German population. At the Munich Conference, held on September 29-30, 1938, the leaders of Britain and France agreed that could annex this territory in exchange for Hitler’s pledge not to wage war. Czechoslovakia was not permitted to attend the conference. Unitarians in the United States, who had close ties to Unitarian churches in Czechoslovakia, were stunned by the news. Unitarian leaders in Prague soon became inundated with political dissidents, Jews, and other refugees fleeing Germany, Austria, and the Sudetenland, who sought refuge in free and democratic Czechoslovakia. The American Unitarian Association decided to organize a relief effort for refugees in Czechoslovakia. Robert Dexter, the director of the American Unitarian Association’s (AUA) Department of Social Relations, sailed to Europe to assess the situation. When he returned, he recommended the Unitarians try to help Jews and anti-Nazi Germans from the Sudetenland, Austria, and Germany. Prague. With more than $40,000 to support the newly formed “Commission for Service in Czechoslovakia,” the AUA asked Waitstill and Martha Sharp to travel to Prague to assist refugees. Motivated by their faith and their moral outrage, the Sharps made the difficult decision to accept the charge. They left their two small children in the care of close friends in the congregation. On February 4, 1939, they set sail for Europe. They stopped several times en route to Prague, setting up a network of volunteers and agencies. This network assisted Martha and Waitstill over the next six months as they traveled in and out of Prague. Less than a month after the Sharps arrived, the Nazis invaded and occupied Czechoslovakia. The Czech President, Emil Hácha, surrendered the country without resistance. The Sharps needed police assistance to enter their offices in Prague that morning, since the crowds gathered outside were so large. Waitstill had to make an announcement to clarify that their offices were not American territory, and that they were not an emigration or visa agency. During the chaos of the day—with Martha even talking down a man with a gun—the Sharps decided that Martha would focus on individual immigration cases, while Waitstill would focus on the relief projects they had actually been sent to facilitate. The Sharps' work was divided for the following six months between relief and emigration assistance. The couple assisted refugees with immigration paperwork, distributed relief money and goods, and helped refugee intellectuals find employment in the United States. Much of their activity involved individual cases, though on one occasion, Martha escorted 35 refugees—journalists, political leaders, and orphaned children—to England, concealing their identities from Nazi authorities along the way. She also cooperated with British organizations to gather children for . After more than six months, Waitstill Sharp left Prague for a conference in Switzerland. Nazi authorities prevented him from returning to the German-occupied Czech provinces. Martha joined him a week later, narrowly escaping arrest by the . They sailed for the United States at the end of August, returning as World War II broke out in Europe. The Unitarian Service Committee. After the Sharps left Europe, the AUA's Robert Dexter and his wife, Elisabeth, embarked on a 10-country fact-finding mission. This mission led to the establishment of the Unitarian Service Committee (USC). The Sharps, the Dexters, and Unitarian minister Charles Joy are considered the five founding staff members of the Unitarian Service Committee. Lisbon. In May 1940, Frederick May Eliot, president of the AUA, wrote to Waitstill and Martha Sharp, asking them to return to Europe. This time, they were sent to France as the Unitarian Service Committee's “ambassadors extraordinary.” But before they could arrive in Paris to set up an office, the Germans occupied the city. Instead, the Sharps opened an office in Lisbon, since thousands of refugees were escaping to neutral Portugal, hoping to find safety and a ship to take them to the United States or another destination outside of Europe. The Unitarian office in Lisbon remained open throughout the war. The Sharps, Charles Joy, and the Dexters each staffed the office at various times, and, in collaboration with many other individuals and organizations, helped several thousand people escape. The Unitarians focused on political refugees—people who had spoken out against Nazism in Germany or fascism in Spain and whom other organizations were reluctant to help—as well as academics, scientists, and intellectuals. Among those the Sharps directly helped escape was the German Jewish novelist . Waitstill Sharp himself sailed with Feuchtwanger to New York—a trip ultimately made possible when Martha Sharp gave up her ticket to ensure passage for Feuchtwanger. Marseilles. While Waitstill Sharp spent most of his time in Lisbon, Martha Sharp worked at a new Unitarian Service Committee office in Marseilles, which was the primary port in unoccupied from which refugees could escape. During this time, the Unitarian Service Committee worked closely with , an American sent to Europe by the new Emergency Rescue Committee (the forerunner of today's International Rescue Committee) in New York. As refugees escaped with the help of the Emergency Rescue Committee, the USC helped them navigate the French- Spanish border and assisted with travel arrangements and money once the refugees reached Lisbon. In Marseilles, Martha focused on milk distribution to French children, and organized a children’s transport to the United States. She doggedly battled numerous bureaucracies to secure exit visas, transit permits, and identity papers for 29 children and 10 adults. She sailed from Lisbon with two of the children and four adults in early December 1940. The others followed on a second voyage. Martha’s organization of the children’s transport became a model for the United States Committee for the Care of European Children, which brought several hundred children from France, Spain, and Portugal to the United States during World War II. Wartime and Postwar. During the war, Martha gave numerous speeches on behalf of the Unitarian Service Committee, and both Martha and Waitstill advocated for the American Relief for Czechoslovakia organization. In 1944, Waitstill Sharp was appointed to a United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration (UNRRA) position in Cairo. Martha returned to Spain and Portugal, assisting refugees, mainly Spanish Republicans, to emigrate to South America. In 1946, Martha ran for Congress, but lost, in part because of accusations that the USC was a leftist, communist-supporting organization. Having spent so much time apart, Martha and Waitstill decided to divorce in 1954. Both eventually remarried. Waitstill Sharp passed away in 1983. Martha Sharp Cogan passed away in 1999. Righteous Among the Nations. In 1963, Yad Vashem established the title of Righteous Among the Nations to honor non-Jews who risked their lives to save Jews during the Holocaust. In 2006, Martha and Waitstill Sharp were the second and third US citizens, after Varian Fry, to receive this designation.
