Opportunity at a Glance: D-Day marked a turning point in WWII, as Allied troops landed in Normandy. By April 1945, they reached Nazi concentration camps, liberating tens of thousands. The Soviets freed Auschwitz and Majdanek, assisted by partisan forces.
Join us for this program examining liberation: Bonnie Gurewitsch discusses American liberators’ experiences. Recorded testimony of Jewish partisan Lyuba Abramovich, who derailed 18 Nazi troop trains. Natalia Aleksiun analyzes Lyuba’s testimony, illuminating Jewish efforts at self-liberation during the Holocaust.
We look forward to your participation in this exploration of liberation and resistance.
