Courage and Conviction Holocaust Remembrance event – see details below.

The event can be viewed on our website at: https://amyisraelchaiatlanta.org/courage-and-conviction/index.html

Thank you for watching the incredible J’Accuse movie. The movie is a brilliant documentary that gives a voice to the murdered Jews of Lithuania. The Holocaust in Lithuania resulted in an almost complete annihilation of the Jewish community. More than 95 percent of Lithuania’s Jewish population (approximately 220,000 Jews) were murdered by the Nazis and their Lithuanian collaborators during the War – mostly between June and December of 1941. This was a more complete destruction than befell any other country affected by the Holocaust. A deep and simmering level of antisemitism fueled this destruction in Lithuania – and sadly, it is not unlike the deepening and unbridled antisemitism we are experiencing around the world today.

We invite you to view the Courage and Conviction event on our website that includes Holocaust survivor speaker, Elly Gotz, who is 95 years old and is an incredible speaker. He is a survivor of the Kovno Ghetto and the Dachau concentration camp. He was liberated by Hilbert Margol (another Atlanta connection). Hilbert is a liberator who was with the US Army, Rainbow Division who liberated Dachau on April 29th, 1945. Hilbert lives in Dunwoody and looks forward to celebrating his 100th birthday in February.

Our other speakers – Grant Gochin and Silvia Foti both have incredible stories to tell about their families in Lithuania.

Grant Gochin lost over 100 family members in the Holocaust in Lithuania.

Silvia is a journalist who began writing a book about her grandfather who is held as a Lithuanian War hero – but who she discovered was responsible for the deaths of more than 14,000 Jews in Lithuania. Together they are fighting for justice in Lithuania.

The event includes a riveting and most interesting panel discussion including Grant Gochin, Silvia Foti and film director, Michael Kretzmer.

The panel discussion is moderated by Nadia Bilchik – an Atlanta based television news anchor, keynote speaker and communications specialist.

The event also includes an online exhibit about the Holocaust in Lithuania: https://amyisraelchaiatlanta.org/courage-and-conviction/exhibit.html

Best regards,

Andrea Videlefsky

President, Am Yisrael Chai
