« In my “work of remembrance” I put all my effort, as we all should, into young people. To show them the horrors they could be lead to, as many of their forebears were. To show what happens when there is inaction in the face of injustice, exclusion and barbarity. In this ‘“work of remembrance” we must also remind young people that the executioners were ordinary people, just like any of us. So, we must be vigilant as to how we respond to others, so we do not in turn become their executioners. » 

Sam BRAUN

What have we learned from Sam?

 This section is made up of three parts where we focus on Sam Braun’s legacy, hearing from the students he engaged with and their teachers. We also learn how the next generation carries on his work … his own children, with Malka Braun as an example, as well as the children and grandchildren of survivors of the camps and those who survived the Resistance..

These advocates for the survivors now have a crucial role so that the story is not lost in years to come.
