Jewish Motorcyclists Visit Holocaust Memorial in Dixie

Look at THIS POST by Jewish Deaf Motorcycling Dad. It was from the annual trip of a national Jewish motorcycling group. He rode cross-country with this group down to the heart of Dixie, Whitwell, TN. There, they made a big visit to the public elementary school that created the Paper Clip Holocaust Memorial, that people may have heard about. I think people find it so fascinating because there is ostensibly no Jewish connection in a town like that, yet they were so moved by it to create this memorial. Interesting post and story so check out JDMD's post!

Documentary on German Jews Who Went Back to Fight the Nazis

Here's a video that Alice shared with me summarizing a documentary about Jews who escaped Nazi Germany and then joined the American army to fight the Nazis. I found it very interesting.

Yitz at Heichal Hanegina has an amazing post with a story about R' Dovid Werdyger, and how he was saved by the Nazis (y"sh) by emunah, tefillah, and a niggun.
