"Holocaust survivor questioned by police over Gaza protest says he will continue to march" [2:56 min]
by The Independent

Quote by TI:
"Mar 21, 2025
An 87-year-old Holocaust survivor has been questioned by police after he laid flowers at Trafalgar Square during a Gaza protest to commemorate the tens of thousands of Palestinians killed by Israel.
Stephen Kapos, 87, was interviewed by the Metropolitan Police on Friday about the pro-Palestine protest that happened on 18 January in central London – a demonstration the force faced accusations of “repressive and heavy-handed policing” over at the time."

Part III - Over the next 3 years, with the help of the Red Cross, Nassy was provided with art supplies, allowing him to create more than 200 paintings + drawings that would depict life in the camps.
Liberated in 1945, Nassy passed away in 1976

Part II - She feared her #painting would bring about her demise, but instead her talent caught the attention of SS Dr Josef Mengele. Dina was asked by Mengele to create #portraits of #Romani prisoners, thinking that her #paintings would better portray skin color differences than a photo could. She agreed under the condition that her mother remain in the camp with her. Her bravery would save both the women's lives.

Putain le mec, quel courage, quelle force (et quelle humilité aussi: écoutez jusqu'à la fin) Avant de se lancer dans sa réponse, il prend une grande respiration... La salle lui est conquise, certes, mais il prend le temps de répondre à la dame qui dénonce les bébés mis au four le 7 octobre.

Lily Ebert, the Auschwitz survivor who became famous when she tried to find the family of a soldier who saved her, has died at age 100. Ms. Ebert, whose mother and two sisters died in the concentration camp, set up a TikTok account where she shared videos of her Holocaust reflections. “I would talk for my own sake, and I would also speak for those I loved who hadn’t survived,” she wrote in her memoir. “And for all the millions of people I never knew who died with them, all over Europe, I want the world to never forget this terrible crime against humanity.” Here's more from @newyorktimes.

Frieda Belinfante (1904-1995) was an openly homosexual Dutch cellist & conductor of Jewish descent. During the War, Belinfante joined the same resistance movement as Willem Arondeus and other Dutch homosexuals & artists specializing in forging false identity papers & helping those wanted by the Gestapo into hiding. Belinfonte aided in organizing the 1943 bombiing of the Population Registry in Amsterdam. After the perpetrators were turned in by an unknown informant Belinfante fled Holland, dressed as a man, through Belgium & France to Switzerland. Once the war ended she was able to continue her musical career.
