The Power of Words - Dedicated to the Memory of Judith Altmann (S2, E34)
from Judaism in the 21st Century · host Steven Labkoff, MD & Rabbi Daniel Cohen
Words can be potent tools. They can build and they can destroy. Words can make someone's day or leave them depressed and dejected. This episode covers a topic that was near and dear to Judith Altmann, a Holocaust Survivor who passed away this week at age 100. She used her power of words for decades after the Holocaust with children at various ages in public schools to tell her story and ensure that she would bear witness to what occurred, and that she'd pass that along. The power of her words was a powerful testament to her life and her experiences.
