​

The legacy of those the world lost and those who suffered and survived must continue to be remembered and honored.  For it is when we reflect upon their stories, we learn the reasons of the Holocaust, and we remember from the past what hatred can do . . .  and how to never let it happen again.

Can you fathom the horror and pain of

Six Million lives tortured and killed?

It is only through the love and compassion of his audiences was Ben able to psychologically confront the pain from the loss of his mother, Hannah. Through telling his story, Ben formed thousands of friendships and was able to restore trust in humanity -- despite the hate he experienced.
