For Research 170 #3

I watched a video about an 83 year old man who was fighting for his life at the age of thirteen. He said that he use to have visions of his mom holding his hand and taking care of him while he was in the camp. Sol Laufer never got to celebrate his bar mitzvah on his thirteenth birthday because of the Holocaust. He is the only remaining member of his family. Mr. Laufer goes on to say that he will celebrate his bar mitzvah in order to 'say' to his parents' killers that he has not won. This video takes account of how emotional it was for him. It has more of an impact on the audience than a written document because a person can see their facial expressions and hear the tone of their voices.

    That is so sad, the holocaust was a horrible event, and i feel sorry for anybody who had to go to a concentration camp.
