Rebuilding Jewish Life
My friend Diane sent me this great story. Personally, I wouldn't want to have a thing to do with Poland, but these men are to be admired. "They spent their childhoods in the rich, layered Jewish life of prewar Poland, then survived Hitler's mission to wipe out European Jewry in the ghettos and gas chambers of occupied Europe. Now, men such as Tad Taube, Sigmund Rolat and Severyn Ashkenazy have returned to Poland as philanthropists - after making fortunes in the United States - to nurture a grass-roots revival of Jewish life in their homeland."
