It is 80 years since the Holocaust began. The lessons we have
learned in history is that we cannot forget what has happened. We cannot forget because of the victims, their persecutions and horrible deaths. We cannot forget because of the survivors, who witnessed and lost so much, and we cannot forget because Jews, and other victims were targeted for annihilation. And if we don’t remember, if we choose to forget – it can happen again.
The United Nations has designated Holocaust Remembrance Day to be on January 27th, the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz – Birkenau.
In tribute to Holocaust Remembrance Day, Dr. Moshe Katz, a survivor of the Holocaust agreed to tell his story during an interview with Baila Sebrow, producer and host of The Definitive Rap.
Dr. Moshe Katz, is author of Nine Out of Ten, and well known speaker who speaks extensively to all audiences about the Holocaust.
Dr. Katz talked extensively about his upbringing, including where he was born and raised, what his family life was before the Holocaust, everything leading up to the Holocaust, what he endured, and how he survived.
Dr. Katz, explained why people were not aware that the situation in Europe was so dire and dangerous for Jews, and that they are being deported to their deaths. He also discussed why he titled his book Nine Out of Ten.
The interview concluded with a blessing for the audience, as it is said that a person who survived the Holocaust has the power to give blessings to others.
WE WILL NEVER FORGET. We will always keep the memory of the 6 million and plus alive. As Elie Wiesel
said, “To forget the dead would be akin to killing them a second time.”
