From Oswiecim to Auschwitz

Enlarge text Shrink text

Weiss, an Orthodox Jew from the town of Oświęcim, Poland, immigrated to the U.S. before World War II. Many members of his family were killed in the Holocaust. Relates his trips to Poland between 1990-93 in order to find remnants of Jewish life and to aid in restoring Jewish communal services. Describes the towns he visited, and briefly recounts events of the Holocaust in each town. Of the few Jews remaining in Poland (ca. 5,000), only several hundred identify with the Jewish community. Notes the persistence of antisemitism in Poland up to the present. (From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism - The Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
