Rev. Michael V. Holocaust testimony
Abstract
Videotape testimony of Michael V., who was born in Nairobi, Kenya in 1946 to a Christian father and a Jewish mother. He speaks of his mother's family, most of whom perished in Auschwitz; his parents' decision to raise him as a Christian; and his response to the Holocaust from the perspective of both a Jew and a Christian.
