Their experiences ranged from living through anti-Semitism and Kristallnacht, surviving the Lodz Ghetto, fighting in the resistance, being shuffled between forced labor camps, suffering as slave laborers, escaping the death march, being smuggled into an orphanage, and hiding for nearly two years alone in an attic room. Bearing Witness fosters dialog between the survivors and today's Jewish youth, cultivating personal awareness and one's responsibility to learn from history. Through these survivors' individual stories, the Holocaust's collective history is shared. Through the survivors' personal memories and messages of hope, we are inspired by the human will to survive.
