Join us as we step into history through real stories shared by the grandchildren of Holocaust survivors, in partnership with 3GNY. In this powerful session, you will hear two personal family stories that highlight strength, resilience, and the realities of the Holocaust.
This is more than a history lesson. It is a chance to connect with real people and better understand their experiences. Hearing these stories can help you think more deeply, build empathy, and feel confident speaking up against bias and unfairness.
You will leave with a stronger understanding of history and a meaningful connection that will stay with you.
