Reply to comment by Gibletbiggot in Gerda Weissman Klein was one of only 120 survivors of a 350 mile Death March during the Holocaust; it began with over 4,000 people. In this clip she tells of the last time she ever saw her father, and credits her survival to the intuitive last words he spoke to her. by asday515
I don’t want to know the stories, I’ve read/watched so many of them over the years…but I always read/watch anyway. To me it feels like, the people in these stories, who lived through such deep deep darkness, were powerless in the face of a truly gigantic evil that stripped everything away from them. The least I can do is not look away. Hear it, be a witness for them.
I wasn’t there, but I am horrified by what happened. We should carry our horror, so we can reject any hint of that kind of dehumanization wherever, wherever we are able.
