When Families Disappeared: Camp Shvesters (Sisters), with Michael Berenbaum

Описание к видео When Families Disappeared: Camp Shvesters (Sisters), with Michael Berenbaum

When they lost family members during the Holocaust, many Jewish women and girls formed substitute “families” with other women. These sisterhoods were particularly important inside concentration camps, where the bonds formed between women often helped them survive constant danger.

This lecture explores the phenomenon of camp shvesters (sisters) with Dr. Michael Berenbaum, world-renowned historian and Director of the Sigi Ziering Institute at American Jewish University. The program was co-presented by the Museum and Project Witness.
