My Family's Holocaust Story: Bearing Witness to the Holocaust
My Family's Holocaust Story: Bearing Witness to the Holocaust
Renee Bronner Pessin tells the story of her mother, Helen, and father, Sam, who met while imprisoned in a concentration camp during the Holocaust. Both would end up being the only survivors from their large and extended families (with Sam's brother) of that period in history. They later reunited, married, and moved to the U.S., and have shared their Holocaust stories with their daughter. Renee feels it is more urgent than ever to share her parents' story —with the community—so that history will not repeat itself, which she has gleaned from family photos and her mother's video testimony to the Shoah Foundation.
