Theresienstadt Concentration Camp Czech Jewish Holocaust Survivor Ela Stein-Weissberger spoke during the 2013 Federal Inter-Agency Holocaust Remembrance Day, at the Lincoln Theater, on Wednesday, April 17, 2013, in Washington, D.C. Ms. Stein-Weissberger talks about her experience of ‘The Night of Broken Glass’, when the Nazis smashed the Stein home. During her imprisonment at Theresienstadt Concentration Camp, she took part in a children’s play ‘Brundibar’ that was part of a German SS propaganda film that showed a model of camp conditions and activities. The film was never released by the German government, but did survive the war. She was shown in the cast, when it was used in the CBS News program – 60 Minutes – ‘The Nazi Deception.’ She also displayed her cloth ‘Jude’ badge that identified her as being Jewish under Nazi rule. Since the 1979 President’s Commission on the Holocaust, an annual proclamation signed by the President of the United States recognizes the importance of remembering the atrocities of the Holocaust that should never be forgotten or be ignored.
