Re: [Cz-L] Popovici at the Jewish Museum

In case anyone else reading Hardy's message makes the same mistake, I made
and thinks that this "livejournal" report is on a recent interview with
Natalya Shevchenko, I would like to stress that this is a quotation of what
she said to Marian and Leo, quite some time ago.
In the Jewish museum there are on display photocopies of Popovici
authorizations and the memorial plaque to Traian Popovici is on display in a
central part of town.

Last summer, while in Czernowitz, I happened to meet with two researchers
from the Holocaust museum in Washington, who were conducting research about
the extend to which Jewish people are publicly commemorated in Ukrainian
cities and towns. They told me that Chernivtsi, is one of the cities, in
which Jewish famous people are commemorated more than in most other cities.
