Holocaust
First Thursday: A Holocaust Story of Survival & Triumph
In observance of Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Memorial Day), Ed Skobac, Steve Janove and David Janove will offer a presentation about Ed’s father, William, who survived the Holocaust alone in Poland, and then, taking on the identity of a gentile, lived on a farm, and later survived an arrest by the Red Army who thought William was a German spy.
Holocaust Memorial Day: Pink Triangles, Yellow Stars, and Hateful Laws
A less well-known part of the Holocaust is that the Nazis also rounded up gays and lesbians, forcing them to wear pink triangles on their clothes so they could be easily recognized and further humiliated inside the concentration camps.
