An upcoming virtual presentation on the Holocaust is now open for registration. Iowa classrooms in grades 5-12 can sign up to join the Nov. 7 one-hour event titled βHear Lessons from a Holocaust Survivor.β
Sponsored by the Jewish Federation of the Quad Cities, the free virtual presentation will feature Holocaust survivor, Sol Nayman and his personal accounts of his life in Europe during World War II.
Nayman was a child when his family escaped Poland for the Soviet Union, where life was difficult and his father was used for slave labor. After the liberation in Europe by Allied forces, his family lived in a Displaced Person camp before moving to Canada. His story was featured in a BOOK by ME series, βIf Not Now, When?β by Iowan Rebecca Lower in 2023.
All Iowa schools are invited to register to attend this free event on Nov. 7 at 9:30 a.m.
