parents—Amalie
Growing up the child
of two survivors, I
learned early on the
uncles, and cousins whom
my parents lost in the
Holocaust. Then an elderly
relative mentioned a first
cousin I’d never known

It is vitally important to
document the stories and

that works to remember the
past in order to promote a
more tolerant future.”
