Webinar: Whose Stories? The Holocaust Survivor, The Girl, and The Legacy
World Without Genocide will host a webinar, Whose Stories? The Holocaust Survivor, The Girl, and The Legacy, on Sunday, April 21, 1:00 – 2:30pm CT.
Genocides are never over; the trauma echoes across generations. This webinar explores the little-known French Kindertransports, or children’s transports, which allowed Jewish children in France to escape to safety in the US.
Author Lilly Maier’s story begins when she was 11 years old. A Kindertransport participant, now 75 years old, knocked on the door of her family’s house in Vienna – where he and his family had lived before the Holocaust. Lilly explores the heroic efforts to save Jewish children, post-war restitution, and the intergenerational impact of genocide.
This webinar is open to the public:
