Living History
Living History is a programme designed for students in which second- and third-generation Holocaust survivors and people with connections to the Holocaust recount their families’ experiences and stories over a 45 minute Zoom presentation.
The Living History programme aims to emphasise the contemporary resonance of the Holocaust to students. Speakers in the programme include:
Caryna Camerino, founder of Camerino Bakery in Dublin and third-generation Holocaust survivor, recounts the story of her grandfather Enzo, an Italian Jew who escaped Italy as the youngest survivor of the Raid of the Ghetto of Rome on October 16th 1942.
Klaus Unger recalls the story of his father, who was born in Berlin to an Ashkenazi Jewish father. He fled Germany in November 1938, following the events of the November Pogrom, or ‘Kristallnacht’.
Aimée Dawson, whose grandmother, Zhanna Arshanskaya Dawson, escaped the Holocaust as a child in Ukraine, but whose parents perished at the massacre at Drobytsky Yar recalls her memories of her grandmother.
