Carrying Forward the Memory
Evening at Emory - Humanities and Cultural Studies
In reliving with the world their most painful experiences, Fate has placed an unprecedented burden on the survivors of the Holocaust. Living testimony has become rare because most survivors are no longer with us or have grown too old to make presentations. Paula Gris, a Holocaust survivor imprisoned in a concentration camp in the Ukraine as a child, presents her personal history along with a historical overview of the holocaust in Romania. History is not just about an event—it is about human lives. Take this rare and fleeting opportunity to hear from a survivor.
