"Forgiveness isn’t something we do for the person who’s hurt us. It’s something we do for ourselves, so we’re no longer victims or prisoners of the past, so we can stop carrying a burden that harbors nothing but pain."
The Holocaust Education Film Foundation was established to build an international, interactive online community one Holocaust Survivor Story at a time; ensuring we “Never Forget.”

"People often ask how I can ever forgive the Nazis. I don’t have the godly power to anoint anyone with forgiveness, to spiritually cleanse others for their wrongs. But I have the power to free myself. So do you."
TOPICS TO BE DISCUSSED:
Who will tell my story after I am gone?
How will my story be told?
How will my message be conveyed?
How does surviving Auschwitz have anything to do with what we are experiencing in the 21st century? Hate crimes, political division, the pandemic, mass shootings, natural disasters, abusive relationships.
How do we turn from being a victim to a survivor?
