[Cz-L] Berezhany: My City, My Pride - A Parallel Case

Czernowitzers...

It's Marla Raucher Osborn, a friend of mine, who drew my attention to the Video clip "Berezhany: My City, My Pride", brought to us by Jeremy Borovitz. In Berezhany, a town in the Ternopil region of Western Ukraine, a group of local students discover their history. Well, this short video clip (14:07) provoked a controversial debate among the members of the Rohatyn Shtetl Research Group on the conception of Holocaust history, quite very similar to those, which we are conducting within our group from time to time. Therefore, as a parallel case, I've embedded the video at our ehpes.com Blog

adding Jeremy's most insightful statement on this film, to which I'm subscribing word by word and which is very much in line with my own experiences in Western Ukraine. One more reason to share with you this film, is the ongoing project of the Museum of the History and Culture of Bukovinian Jews, "which aims the creation of educational material about the Holocaust in the region around Chernivtsi".

Thank you Marla, thank you Jeremy, for sharing and for your outstanding engagement!
