Dozens of descendents of refugees and of Sousa Mendes descendents travelled "The Road to Freedom" from Paris to Lisbon over the last few weeks, with the high points in Bordeaux, Vilar Formoso and Cabanas de Viriato.
They have shared this emotional visit with the rest of us through the images and pictures they have published in Facebook.
Perhaps my favorite comment is that of Neely Bruce, a musical composer from Connecticut:
"The week in Portugal is going to be an amazing crescendo of those saved by the ASM visas and Aristides's descendants.
This is one of the great stories of the 20th century, and we are reliving it as a team. Astonishing."
Many thanks to these visitores who came to Portugal to celebrate freedom remind us of the power of One Man of Conscience!

The title of this blog is wrong .
It should not be "THE FRIENDS OF ARISTIDES AND ANGELINA SOUSA MENDES"
But. "THE FRIENDS OF ARISTIDES, ANGELINA AND RENEE SOUSA MENDES"
Shame on you
