Holocaust Survivors Speak

When I was a child in the 1950s, survivors of the concentration camp genocide in Germany did not speak about the horrors they endured and witnessed.

It was only later that they were able to speak and that the world was ready to hear them.  Parts of the world are still not ready to hear them.

You are now able to listen to their stories online.

In fact, it is your duty to hear their stories.

Here's one of the websites, courtesy of the Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust in Pan Pacific Park.

These conversations are part of an ongoing project by KPFK 90.7 FM Los Angeles and Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust in Pan Pacific Park. Excerpts air weekly on KPFK, and can also be found at lamoth.org.
