| Description: |
The HMC collects the testimony of Holocaust survivors, whether they were in the camps, in hiding, passing as non-Jews, or in the partisan or resistance movements. It is also interested in the accounts of the liberators who unexpectedly encountered the results of the Nazis' extermination machine when they entered the camps and the stories of those who helped to save Jewish lives, the righteous gentiles. |
