Ursual Korn-Selig will join me in Milwaukee at an event sponsored by the Nathan and Esther Pelz Holocaust Education Resource Center and NIAF. It will be held at the Italian Community Center, 631 East Chicago Street. Milwaukee, WI. The event is open to the public and there is no cost.
Hello all.
I am still not very good at this blog thing…but that is another story. What is important is to let you know that I have met more Jews who survived in Italy in the last few months. In addition to taping their stories, I have had the privilege to obtain additional documents – documents that once again show how in most of Italy – the Jews were treated with dignity and respect. There are also documents that show the committment Jews had to education – even in a concentration camp.
Thank you for following this amazing story of goodness amidst evil.
I am honored to be speaking with Vincent Marmorale and 4 survivors – hidden in Italy during the Holocaust. Please call 212-249-9923. Reservations are required. There is a fee of $30.00 for members and non-members.
Ursula Korn Selig will be joining me at the University of Michigan – Ann Arbor. The Italian Consulate of Detroit in collaboration with The Frankel Center for Judaic Studies, The International Institute, The Department of Near Eastern Studies, The Depart of Romance Languages & Literatures, The International Institute and The Dante Alighieri Society of Detroit have invited us to speak about how many Jews in Italy survived in Italy during the Holocaust. Joining us will be Susan Langnas whose grandfather was in the same camp as Ursula’s father.
