Holocaust Survivor Speaks at YSP
On Tisha B’av the bochurim of Yeshiva Summer Program in Morristown, NJ heard wrenching testimony of the atrocities of the Holocaust from a survivor, who brought along several artifacts to demonstrate in real-life terms how things were in those dark times.

WOW
How important it is for the young generation to hear these stories before all who lived through it are gone.

From an educational point what is being done here is a must, not to forget or forgive,but how do we insure that this is not too traumatic for these young aged boys, and effects them positively?

The reason I raised this in the previous comment is because as an adult just listening to this survivor and what and how he related, traumatized me to a degree, and I cried……….. and one should shed tears for all what occurred, especially on tisha beav.
I am not being insensitive at all to what is being done here.

Any trauma which these kids may experience by merely hearing these stories is not even a fraction of a fraction of the trauma of the guy telling the story
Perfect
This is a great idea for the boys at camp, they see a lot more disturbing things that the internet exposes them to, this will make a real impression on them.
Does this survivor have a name? Why was he left anonymous,
Elie Wiesel
He looks like Elie Wiesel. Who agrees?
