Send us Fan MailEpisode 92 — The Fog of War and Humanity (Part 2) Guest: Dr. Bernie Furshpan | Host: Richard Acritelli | Series: hmTvIn Part 1, Bernie Furshpan recounted how his parents escaped Nazi murder squads. In Part 2, we follow the equally dramatic “after” story—one that begins in a Munich displaced‑persons camp and ends with a family carving out a future in Brooklyn. Bernie explains:* How a traumatized ten‑year‑old forest survivor joined Israel’s fledgling air force with nothing more than borrowed rifles and boundless will. * Why Bernie’s mother, separated from her own mother for five years, vowed never to let her children come home to an empty house. * The subtle scars of second‑generation PTSD—from triple‑locked doors to scanning every room for exits. * The ticking urgency behind The Weight of Memory: I Am Bernie Furshpan, a new documentary framing Holocaust lessons for Gen Z.This episode is a blueprint for turning inherited trauma into purposeful action—whether through education, museum work, or simply teaching children to value a safe, open society. Tune in for an intimate, hopeful reminder that even in the fog of war, humanity can prevail.Support the show
