SUMMARY:Echoes & Reflections | Righteous Among the Nations: One Teacher's Personal Story
DESCRIPTION:The stories of non-Jews who were risked their lives to help Jews during the Holocaust are exceptional testaments to the human spirit.

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.\nThis webinar connects to Unit 8 on the Echoes & Reflections website.\nTo register\, click here.&nbsp\;
