Download or read book A Ghetto Christmas Eve written by Durel R. Patterson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-08-23 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This description of Christmas Eve has a slightly different view of one of the most joyous days of the year. It is a period when love, joy, peace and happiness is flowing through the air. Most children look forward to two days during the year, their birthday being one and Christmas Day, after receiving new toys and gifts on Christmas Eve, is the other. Each day brings much joy to the children as well as the parents. However, this view of Christmas Eve is not the typical view but it brings humor, laughter and joy to the young and old alike. Christmas Eve is Christmas Eve, but there’s nothing like “A Ghetto Christmas Eve.”
Download or read book Underground The Story of A People written by Joseph Tenenbaum and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2016-01-18 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of a people, its origin, its history, its struggle for survival and its tragic end—the life-and-death story of Polish and other Eastern European Jewries. It is all this and more; more than a mere historical sketch or an episodic narrative of human greatness, more than a record of fighting gallantry and Nazi gore. It is the epic of a people, its prose and its poetry, its piety and devotional consecration, its visions of a heavenly glory in an environment of collective disapproval, its never-fading hopes amidst strains of despair—a people that lived by the book and died by the sword. The vitality of these Jewries in so strange an environment—an underprivileged, underground minority, at best as citizens in exile—has been a puzzle to historians. Somehow their rise did not fit in with orthodox sociological theories or historical precedents. Neither did their tragic end, and while their life was a miracle, their execution is a nightmare which shall not cease plaguing the human mind, if not man’s conscience.—From Author’s Preface
Download or read book From Ghetto to Glory written by Asim Suah Khalfani and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2017-05-08 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the trials and triumphs about the life of Asim Suah Khalfani. He was born with a single parent in a poverty-stricken home in one of the most dangerous and worst neighborhoods in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, where people were more than likely to become one of four things: on drugs, selling drugs, in and out of the penal system, or dead. Take the journey as Asim explains how God had different plans for his life in which he had to overcome, conquer, metamorphose, transfigure, and master life after learning to allow and submit to God by using him to be an encourager and encouragement to others. This jaw-dropping, roller-coaster ride will have you speechless, laughing, crying, and cheering from start (alpha) to end (omega) as you read how God transformed a fatherless boy into a powerful and God-fearing man.
Download or read book Journey Into Terror written by Gertrude Schneider and published by Ardent Media. This book was released on 1979 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There were 40,000 Jews in Riga in July 1941, when the Germans occupied Latvia. 33,000 of them were interned in the ghetto, and most of them (according to Schneider's estimate, 29,000) were killed in November-December 1941 in the Rumbuli forest. At the same time, numerous Jews from the Reich began to be deported to the ghetto of Riga. Ca. 20,000 German, Austrian, and Czech Jews arrived there during the winter of 1941-42; 800 of them survived the war, which is much greater than the numbers of German Jewish survivors from the ghettos of Łódź, Minsk, Kaunas, etc. Presents a story of life and death in the ghetto, focusing mainly on the "German" part of it; the story is largely based on testimonies of survivors, including Schneider's own (she was deported to the Riga ghetto from Vienna in February 1942). Many of the Jews were sent to the Jungfernhof camp near the city, rather than to the ghetto. Later, some were transferred from the ghetto to the Salaspils camp, and in August 1943, 7,874 Jews were sent from the ghetto to the Kaiserwald camp. The rest of the ghetto was liquidated in October 1943, and ca. 60 people were left to remove all traces of the former inhabitants, after which they were also transferred to Kaiserwald. Pp. 157-175 contain a list of survivors, and pp. 177-211 contain documents.

Download or read book The Darkest Christmas written by Peter Harmsen and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: December 1942 saw the bloodiest Christmas in the history of mankind. From the islands in the Pacific to the China front, from the trenches in Russia to the battlelines in North Africa, in the skies over Europe and in the depths of the Atlantic, men were killing each other in greater numbers than ever before. The Holocaust continued, and innocent civilians were murdered by the thousands throughout the evil Nazi empire, even as the perpetrators celebrated the birth of Christ. At the same time as the slaughter continued unabatedly, throughout the world there were random acts of kindness, born out of an instinctive feeling of the essential brotherhood of man. These gestures also straddled religious barriers and sometimes included those of non-Christian faiths. Even some Japanese, otherwise embarked on a self declared crusade against the West, relented for a few precious hours in acknowledgment of the holiday. At the same time, Christmas 1942 saw the injunction of “good will to man” distorted in ugly and callous ways. At Auschwitz, SS guards played cruel games with their prisoners. In Berlin, the German heart of darkness, Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels spent time with his family while still buried in feverish fantasies about the Jewish world conspiracy. Christmas 1942 saw the entire range of man’s conduct towards his fellow man, reflecting the extremes of behavior, good and bad, that World War Two gave rise to. The way the holiday was marked around the world tells a deeper and more universal story of the human condition in extraordinary times.

Download or read book Kati s Story written by Catherine Veres and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a decade of taped conversations between Kati (Catherine) Veres, and her son Peter Veres, KATI'S STORY: RECOLLECTIONS OF TWO WORLDS is the multigenerational story of a Jewish family. It takes us from mid-nineteenth century villages in Hungary during the Austro-Hungarian Empire to cosmopolitan Budapest before, during, and after World War II, and finally to post-war New York City. It is also the story of a culture that transformed from tolerant to virulently intolerant in a single generation: Kati's father served as an officer in the Hungarian army during WWI but was deported and killed during WWII. Sensing the coming disaster, Kati went to England to give birth to her first child, hoping that a British birth certificate would protect him against anti-Semitism. She returned to Budapest to be with her ailing parents, survived the war and its aftermath with her husband and two sons, and found a way to immigrate to New York to be near her brother, Gabor Carelli, who became a principal soloist at the Metropolitan Opera Company. In her new world she built on her sewing skills to become an assistant dress designer of high-end bridal gowns in the then vigorous New York garment industry and later a pattern maker at Simplicity Patterns. Augmenting Kati's story is a large selection of family photographs and official documents, many in color, dating back to the mid-nineteenth century, which remarkably survived the war and emigration in excellent condition. Also included are several color maps indicating places mentioned in the text, family trees, and footnotes about historical and geographical details.
