Sidney "Sevek" Finkel refused to die in the Holocaust and he refuses to let his story of survival and the terrors of the genocide disappear. He authored a memoir "The Boy Who Refused to Die" and has told his story to thousands, including over 300 different schools. His daughter, Ruth Finkel Wade, has also made certain that his story is never forgotten. She published a book, "The Ones Who Remember: Second-Generation Voices of the Holocaust", which provides an intimate look at the impact the Holocaust had on his personal life and their relationship.
In this episode, 93-year-old Sidney recalls his heartbreaking immigration journey from liberation to being one of the orphaned Windermere Children, who were taken to England to be re-integrated into society after surviving the Holocaust. He also discusses his newfound life in the United States. Both Sidney and Ruth provide a fascinating conversation about their lives and how we should never forget the horrors of the Holocaust and never let it happen again.
