As we finished commemorating Yom HaShoa, The Definitive Rap paid tribute to the more than 6 million holy souls who were murdered during the Holocaust. Those who are not related to Holocaust survivors may not realize that the atrocities, in fact continued, and is continuing to this very day. Children of Holocaust survivors are still carrying the pain of what their parents and grandparents endured. In fact, experts are saying that
even third generation Holocaust survivors are also still suffering.
We had the privilege of meeting Deborah Levison, a child of Holocaust survivors who turned her pain into becoming an award-winning journalist. During the interview she eloquently tells the story of her parent’s ordeals, not just of the brutal dark days of the Holocaust, but also present day. We discussed her debut multiple award-winning book The Crate: A Story of War, a Murder, and Justice, the true crime story that happened in her family with
echoes of the genocidal horror of the Holocaust, and the strive for justice.
In talking about the Holocaust, Deborah explained how she felt different from her peers growing up, and how she learned
about the Holocaust from her parents, and what they endured, and how they survived. She explained how her parents’ experiences in the Holocaust influenced her life.
The Holocaust cannot and should not ever be forgotten. The memories of the more than six million holy souls must always
be kept alive. Never again will the Holocaust ever happen. Never again!
