Women’s History Month - March 26, 1942, the First Jewish Transport Arrived in Auschwitz; it was Comprised Entirely of Girls and Women
(PRWEB) February 25, 2015 -- Rena’s Promise stands alone among Holocaust memoirs for its historical importance and NOW REVEALS remarkable NEW INFORMATION about the First Women in Auschwitz*:
- How the Slovakian government sold these girls for slave labor to the Third Reich;
- How parents believed their daughters were going to a government work camp;
- How many of the girls and women died in the first six months (50 were teenagers);
- The names of every girl and woman on the first transport and their ages;
- Incredible previously untold stories of some who survived and some who did not.
Talking Points:
- Why do so few people know that the First Jewish Transport to Auschwitz was made up entirely of girls and women?
- Why was the First Jewish Transport to Auschwitz comprised solely of young women?
- What are the positive messages we can learn from these young women that will give their lives meaning?
- What can Holocaust History teach us about the issues women face from extremists and fanatic militants today?
“A poignant and important act of remembrance.” —Sir Martin Gilbert
