Dovid Katz , Esther Kampler

Dovid Katz talks about the Ukraine scandal
from a Jewish and human rights perspective. Katz edits the web
journal Defending History (www.DefendingHistory.com), which
counters the Eastern European movement to obfuscate, without
denying, the Holocaust. An internationally renowned expert on
Yiddish, he is now working on a new online Yiddish dictionary
(www.YiddishCulturalDictionary.org). His personal website:

Esther Kampler is a Holocaust survivor
originally from Czernowitz, Romania (today's Chernivtsi,
Ukraine), who now lives in Brookline, Mass. We got to hear a
bit about her younger years before and after the Holocaust,
which claimed the lives of her parents and a brother.
