Child Survivors of the Holocaust
Testimony from Child Survivors from the Holocaust
The book Live Remember Tell is full of testimony from child survivors from the holocaust. Mrs. Kaufman writes:
Romanian children were born and bred in the cradle of hatred. This feeling was fed to babies with their mother’s milk, to children in the public schools that banned Jews, and to the students in universities that allowed only 15% of the Jewish applicants to pass the entrance exams, and then to enter at exorbitant fees and to study under abusive, oppressive, and often physically dangerous conditions.
Holocaust Books
Amongst the holocaust books that are available, Mrs. Kaufman’s is a gem. Says J. W. from Cornell U.:
Your story makes a fire burn inside me. I begin to want to fight with my words, my money, to save our people from a repetition of the Holocaust. How can we live and pretend that everything is fine, like the Jews of Europe thought before the Holocaust? Your life is important to our survival as a people, and to future Jewish contribution to humanity.
