Description

The Holocaust Memorial & Tolerance Center of Nassau County (HMTC) presents a virtual 2G talk by Ellen Kaidanow in collaboration with The Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center in White Plains, NY. Ellen Kaidanow, the daughter-in-law of two Holocaust Survivors, tells the story of her mother-in-law’s life as a young girl in the ghetto and her miraculous tale of becoming the sole survivor of her family at age six.  She was saved by a Christian woman who hid her for two years.  Ellen feels that part of her fate and purpose is to be a witness for her mother in law’s story.  She wants to honor her and help others to have a personal connection to the Holocaust so they become witnessesand influence others to be “upstanders,” not bystanders.
