The sections below provide information about past Holocaust survivors and the supporters who made their visits possible.
Black River Technical College and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum have partnered since 2006 to make these amazing stories available to residents of Northeast Arkansas and Southeast Missouri. We are delighted to have had the opportunity to help these survivors share their important stories.
I don’t know why I survived, but I did, and now I must bear witness for the many Jewish and other victims who did not live to tell their story.
