Hearing a real Holocaust survivor story can change your life. In a world struggling to ensure justice in our society, many people have never heard the true stories surrounding the horrors of the Holocaust. The Holocaust is considered by historical experts to be the most horrific event in history. The Holocaust victims were attacked and murdered during World War II. But there were also several important events leading up to 1939 that affected the world and the war. Many pivotal events and political issues made escape impossible for those captured and taken to the camps.
Interactive history lessons and Holocaust survivor stories have been created by survivor Ben Lesser to grow awareness and tolerance. The ZACHOR foundation provides education for those who want to learn the real stories of the Holocaust using live and virtual presentations. The foundation also creates curriculum that uses books, e-books, or videos for those who want to provide in-depth study of the Holocaust in their community.
Intolerance and hatred still have a strong grip on culture today. And many people have never had access to more than a few details of the Holocaust. How and why this tragedy unfolded in the world is still a major concern for today’s society. World War II is far behind us, and access to real historical accounts of the tragedies of this conflict are rarer than ever. Help educate your community and youth with inspiration, community, and real stories from those who were there.
