watch interviews of local holocaust/children of Holocaust survivors

Greenburgh is interviewing those whose families were impacted by the Holocaust

Interviews with local residents/family members of Holocaust survivors being remembered on International Holocaust Remembrance Day

Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. A day to remember the horrors of the Holocaust. Today is an important day for all of us to reflect on the horrors of the Holocaust, learn about the lives of the survivors and do what we can to make sure that the atrocities are not repeated. Six million Jews and millions of others were murdered by the Nazis during World War II.

The town of Greenburgh is trying to remember the past with interviews of individuals who lived in our community or who had a connection to our town. We have conducted interviews with those whose lives were impacted by the Holocaust.
