First Person: Conversations with Holocaust Survivors

https://www.ushmm.org/watch/first-person

First Person is a monthly (select Wednesdays at 1pmET) hour-long discussion featuring a live interview between journalist Bill Benson and a survivor and including questions from the audience, available on the Museum’s YouTube channel. It is made possible through generous support from the Louis Franklin Smith Foundation, with additional funding from the Arlene and Daniel Fisher Foundation.

Join Holocaust survivors for live First Person conversations as they share their experiences in their own words. By viewing First Person testimony students are exposed to the diversity of experiences of Holocaust survivors.
