Echoes & Reflections | Righteous Among the Nations: One Teacher's Personal Story

The stories of non-Jews who were risked their lives to help Jews during the Holocaust are exceptional testaments to the human spirit. While a far too rare occurrence, these examples of bravery and sacrifice are an important lesson for students. Join Sheryl Ochayon, Project Director at Yad Vashem, and Marc de Zwaan, high school history teacher at the International Academy - Okma Campus in Michigan, to learn more about the Righteous during the Holocaust. In addition to his classroom expertise, Marc will share his own personal connection to this subject through the story of his grandfather, Marinus Wastenecker, who saved Jews in the Netherlands.
