- First Generation VS Second Generation
- Hello, My name is David Wisnia and I am a Holocaust Survivor.
- First Generation VS Second Generation
- First Generation VS Second Generation
- Hello, My name is Thane Rosenbaum, and I'm a second Generation Holocaust Survivor.
- Remembering the gruesome memories that my parents told me affect me most of the time
- I can have the easiest day at work and one little thing triggers the memories of my parents and then my day goes from good to bad
- There was this one time when I got stuck in an elevator and it reminded me of my parents memories when they were at Auschwitz
- Sometimes I get really scared falling asleep because when I was little, I developed fear of the Darkness
- When it happens, I just try to calm myself down and remember that it was different back then, and stuff like that wont happen today... hopefully because I wouldn't want to live through it.
- As you know, My name is David Wisnia and unlike Thane, I am a Holocaust Survivor.
- You see, living and surviving the Holocaust wasn't easy.
- We were put in a Cattle Car and transported to Auschwitz, not knowing what was going to happen to us.
- A lot of people were exposed and given the same clothes to wear. Then we were assigned jobs.
- My job was to throw the dead bodies into a pit but luckily I was considered a privileged prisoner because of my ability to sing.
- In 1944, The Nazis started evacuating Auschwitz and transporting all the prisoners to Dachau. I realized that I needed to escape because I wasn't considered a privileged prisoner in Dachau.
- I was saved by the American Army and I joined their uniform and fought for the people in the camps.
- I continued fighting and never left until it was over.
- Right after I left, I went to visit my family and I found out they were all dead.
- The only place Ive know as home, was all gone, everything.
- I used all the pain from the past to influence people today.
- I composed a lot of songs, which are in a Museum in Washington, and I got the strength from the pain that I lived in the past.
- Thank you guys for coming. Personally I think First Generation is more powerful in portraying trauma.
- The End
