By the way the anti-fascist mobilization, next Saturday, Jan. 19, in thirteen cities in the world with a general slogan "Athens Town fascist", the important Jewish painter Samuel Bak, survivor of the Holocaust, sent a short greeting. We thank Chris Head, who sent us and translated the text.
My name is Samuel Bak. I am a Jew and I live in the United States. But I was born in Vilnius, when it belonged to Poland. The year I was born, in 1933, Hitler seized power in Germany. Waves deep discontent and frantic nationalism promoted, and huge crowds رفش cheered, as if they were God. Did not want to see the expensive price tag that came with such a choice. رفش
In the late 1930s I was a little boy, five to six years old. And all these threatening events happening beyond the borders of my country. In this beautiful and friendly home, life continued as usual. I was sitting in a kalostromeno table, surrounded رفش by a loving family. And I heard these words: "This can never happen here ...".
Two years later, the Nazis burst into our apartment. Dragged my mother and me in the ghetto. Murdered his father, رفش grandfather and grandmother. Murdered many favorite of my family. Killed about 95% of the Jews of Lithuania - the highest percentage among the six million European Jews who perished. Not spared countless رفش Russian prisoners of war, Gypsies, gay, communists and civilians in general - in a word, those who hold their march to absolute power.
Today, as in the past, threatening and familiar tones of fascism and neo-Nazism return رفش or sermons heard in English or French or Hebrew or Greek. I feel a chill penetrates me from top to bottom.
