Kristallnacht Service with Voices of the Generations

Congregation Ezra-Habenim of Skokie, Illinois, hosted Julie Kohner and Voices of the Generations for their annual Kristallnacht commemoration and memorial service on November 9. Julie spoke to the congregation via Zoom about preserving and sharing the personal stories of Holocaust survivors and their children, and bearing witness as a second generation. In the not too distant future, there will no longer be a Holocaust survivor to share their stories. It is up to us to remember. Special thanks to Rabbi Jeffery Weil, and the Kristallnacht Committee for hosting this special remembrance event.
