  • Dr. Marina Norsi, wife of the late Holocaust survivor Ettore-Israel Norsi, made these remarks at the ceremony that took place yesterday at Yad Vashem, honoring her late husband's wartime rescuers. It was my husband's dying wish that the families remain connected, even once the first generation was no longer with us, as an example of the continuing goodness and kindness from a time of destruction and despair. On 21 March 2017, Yad Vashem recognized Adelmo and Eva Giardini as well as Pietro and Zelinda Giardini as Righteous Among the Nations. . . #yadvashem #yadvashemmuseum #righteousamongthenations #holocaust #shoa #worldwar2 #wwii #italy #jews

  • “Just as the sea gives a child a toy - a boat, so the wind has to give him a kite,” - Janusz Korczak. Youth group members fly dozens of kites in a ceremony at Yad Vashem marking 76 years since the deportation from the Warsaw Ghetto to Treblinka of Janusz Korczak and the children of his orphanage. Janusz Korczak was the pen name of Henryk Goldszmit, a renowned Polish-born doctor, author and educator. Korczak dedicated his life to caring for children, particularly orphans. Despite offers from Polish friends to hide him on the Aryan side of the city, Korczak refused to abandon the children and was deported together with them. . . #yadvashem #januszkorczak #holocaust #warsawghetto #treblinka #kites @mahanoal #воздушныезмеи #המחנותהעולים #עפיפונים #עפיפון

  • Claudine Schwartz-Rudel was 7 years old when she fled from Paris to Southern France with her parents. Before they left Paris, Claudine's parents gave her a doll named Colette. Although the doll was the little girl’s pride and joy, she could not understand all the attention lavished on it by her parents. They kept cautioning Claudine not to break it, not to leave it behind, and not to get it wet. Only later did Claudine realize that Colette also served as a safe. Every night her father would open a hidden compartment in the doll and take out money and other valuables, which were used to bribe the family’s way to safety. . . #DollDay #yadvashem #yadvashemmuseum #museumcollection #doll #children #holocaust #shoa #history #france #paris #worldwar2 #wwii #дети #кукла #холокост #בובה #שואה

  • The Tour de France final stage takes place today! Moshe Cukierman was a captain of the cycling team of the Bar Kochba organization in Lodz, and head of the Cyclists' Association in Lodz. He participated in long-distance riding competitions throughout the 1920s and '30s, won many medals and documented his cycling trips in diaries that he kept. In 1934 Moshe Cukierman married Tova Krakowski, a gymnast from Lodz. The couple came to Eretz Israel in 1935 to take part in the Maccabiah games, and decided to stay rather than return to Poland.
