STUDENT WEBINAR: KRISTALLNACHT, KINDERTRANSPORT, AND RETURN TO LIFE

As the anniversary of Kristallnacht approaches, students and their teachers are invited to join Echoes & Reflections and ADL for a timely and powerful webinar featuring Holocaust survivor Renate Zelovic, who will be sharing her story publicly for the first time. Renate was born in Breslau, Germany in 1932 and has haunting memories of the Kristallnacht Pogrom, marked by the sounds of shattering glass, red lights through her bedroom window, and a solemn family meeting.

After Kristallnacht, Renate and her brother were sent to a Jewish orphanage, and several months later, they, along with about 100 other children, were evacuated from Germany to England on a Kindertransport. Educators and their students should not miss this opportunity to hear from a Holocaust survivor first-hand in an intimate Q&A-style conversation with her granddaughter.

Students are encouraged to join their teachers for this webinar and are welcome to submit their questions in advance here.
