Holocaust Survivor Arek Hersh MBE will be offering his testimony in person. At age 11 Arek was taken by Nazis to a small church in his hometown of Sieradz along with his family and members of the Jewish community. There, Arek was separated from his family and would never see them again. Arek survived his time in two ghettos and several Concentration Camps, before being liberated at age 16. Almost all of his family were murdered. Arek now shares his testimony and does everything he can to counter assertions that the Holocaust was just a ‘detail of history’.
A signed copy of Arek’s book, ‘A Detail of History’ can be purchased at the event.
A professionally filmed video of Arek showing him revisiting the places in his past will be shown at 12:15. Arek will then continue his testimony at 13:00, followed by the opportunity to ask him questions.
