    we dive into the remarkable story of Chiune Sugihara, the Japanese diplomat who risked his career to save thousands of Jewish refugees during World War II. We explore Sugihara's early life, his work in Manchukuo, and the circumstances that led him to defy orders while stationed at the Japanese consulate in Lithuania. Through his tireless efforts, Sugihara issued transit visas that allowed Jewish refugees to escape Nazi persecution. We also discuss the challenges he faced after the war, including his struggles to support his family and his eventual recognition for his humanitarian acts. This episode honors Sugihara's legacy as a diplomat who stood up for humanity during one of history's darkest times.
