Surviving the Holocaust in Poland
Maria Devinki of Overland Park, Kan., is one of the subjects of the new book, They Were Just People: Stories of Rescue in Poland During the Holocaust, by Rabbi Jacques Cukierkorn and Bill Tammeus (2009, University of Missouri Press). Here, she talks about how she survived with the help of non-Jewish Poles.
Dr. Jacob Eisenbach ; Holocaust Survivor Speaker
Dr. Jacob Eisenbach is a 96 year old Holocaust survivor from Lodz, Poland. After the war he emigrated to the United States with his family in 1950. He practiced dentistry for 60 years until he retired at the age of 92, in 2015. He speaks about his astonishing life while in the grip of Hitler's Third Reich and how hatred, discrimination, and intolerance led directly to the Jewish Holocaust. He is the sole survivor of a loving family reaching 100. Torture and mass murder of numerous ethnic groups over thousands of years have scarred mankind's history. It has been and continues to be Dr. Eisenbach's mission to eliminate the scourge of all genocides from the human race.

A delegation of Muslim leaders led by the Secretary-General of the Muslim World League visited the former Nazi-German concentration and extermination camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau on Thursday, to commemorate the 75th anniversary of its liberation by the Soviet Red Army.
We all came here together to express our condemnation for these horrible crimes that took place here, Secretary-General of the Muslim World League Dr. Mohammad Abdulkarim Al-Issa said during his visit.
He added, It is a disgrace on the face of humanity. We all condemn these kinds of horrible acts against humanity.
Dr. Al-Issa could be seen laying a candle at the Death Wall then leading prayers near the International Monument to the Victims of the Auschwitz-Birkenau Camp.
During World War II at least 1.1 million people, of whom about 90 per cent were Jews, were killed at the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. On July 2, 1947, the Polish government decreed that the camp would become a state memorial to the victims of Nazism, a purpose it has served ever since.

Memories of the Warsaw Ghetto is a docudrama (including some fictional elements) of Dr. Eugene Bergman's memories of the Warsaw Ghetto from 1940-1943. The central theme of this film is that the Warsaw Ghetto was not just a charnelhouse but also the venue of a rich and thriving cultural life of its inhabitants. More even, despite the Dantesque living conditions in the ghetto, a cadre of high-minded and idealistic young people arose and they ignited the first armed revolt in Geman-occupied Europe.

Moshe Koussevitzky Memorial Concert, Chapter 4, Cantor Louis Danto זצל
Highlights from the First Memorial Concert dedicated to the master Moshe Koussevitzky, March 14, 1982, Ocean Parkway Jewish Center, Brooklyn NY....Featuring Cantor Louis Danto singing Akavyeh. ......Also on ................Born: May 2, 1929 Suwalki, Poland - near Byalystok.
Cantor Louis Dantos voice has amazed audiences around the world. A child prodigy and a Holocaust survivor, he has been exciting audiences since he was a soloist in Sulwalki, Poland at the age of 6. After a performance at Carnegie Hall, Alan Rich of the New York Times wrote, a voice of great beauty, clear and true — breathtaking, radiant, as though from another world.Louis Danto studied voice and cello in the conservatory of Minsk and later of Lodz. While still a child he won first prize in the all-Russia voice competition. Danto combined the best of his artistic background with his Jewish soul and made Hazzanut his chosen career. In Italy he studied voice with L. Samoshi.
In New York he studied voice with Dr. Puegell. He studied Hazzanut with Leo Low and Herman Zalis. He also expanded his knowledge of Jewish sources at the Yeshiva of Mirr where he studied from 1950 to 1954. Danto soon became internationally recognized for the rare beauty and purity of his voice. He was praised for the mastery, power and control of his voice, and for his extraordinary emotional expressivity.
By the time Louis Danto arrived in the United States in 1950 his voice had already thrilled audiences in Russia and Italy. In the following years his repertoire expanded to include Italian, French and Russian Opera, and Yiddish art and folk songs.
In September 1984 he sang at Torontos Maple Leaf Gardens before millions of television viewers and a live audience of 16,000 which included Prince Phillip and Queen Elizabeth who personally congratulated and thanked him.
He served at the Jewish Center of Atlantic Beach, New York, and at the Park Synagogue in Cleveland, Ohio, retiring in 1998 after over 30 years as cantor at Beth Emeth Bais Yehuda in Toronto.
In February 1998, Cantor Louis Danto received an Honorary Doctorate in Music from the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York City.
