Luis Martins de Souza Dantas (1876-1954) was a Brazilian diplomat who was awarded the Righteous Among The Nations by the Israeli Supreme Court in June 2003 for his participation during the Holocaust in helping Jews in France escape. It is estimated he saved 800 people, 425 confirmed to be Jewish. His actions were not limited to saving Jews but other people considered undesirables according to Nazism, such as communists and homosexuals.
