I can’t believe this would happen in my hometown. I’m absolutely appalled

I’ve had the opportunity to speak three times in two weeks. Thank you Israel Congregation of Manchester, Temple Emanu-El, and The Princeton Historical Society for the honor of sharing my grandfather’s story. May his memory be a blessing and may we all learn from his wisdom.

Last week I had the opportunity to speak to Monarch Academy’s students about Poppy and his story. The students were so insightful and asked incredible questions. A few days ago, I received a package from the school full of thank you letters sharing their thoughts and reflections on my presentation. Being able to educate young minds on the atrocities of the Holocaust and is why I share Poppy’s story.

79 years ago, on January 21, 1945 Poppy was liberated from Fünfteichen Concentration Camp. We must never forget the horrors that he and millions of others experienced in the Holocaust #neveragain

@WillieHandler Your father was in the same camp as my grandfather !

My father was in Funfteichen concentration camp in Jan 1945 when the camp was evacuated. He was transferred by rail to Gross Rosen where life expectancy was 2 months. He was assigned to be a Sonderkommando, those required to empty the gas chambers and operate the crematoria.

This is not 1934 Berlin 🇩🇪 This is 2024 Toronto 🇨🇦

@AlyssaAlessi EXACTLY or what if I typo and have to cross out of my handwriting looks ugly

@WeinfeldWriting I do this. I’m always saving them for the perfect story. 😂

I collect notebooks but can’t seem to bring myself to write in them. I’m too worried about ruining them 😓

@WeinfeldWriting This is every writer, ever.

@SheaVentris But the nice ones are so pretty!

@WeinfeldWriting maybe buy cheaper notebooks :)

@StanFinger Common writer problems?

@bitsofinkling They’re so beautiful

@WeinfeldWriting Same.

@WillieHandler Amazing! How do you prevent the gap in the middle??

@WeinfeldWriting Look what we made today!

Made these delicious pinwheels (this is before baking) part of a perfect day :)

During my most recent shift at the Toronto Holocaust Museum, an 11-year old (the youngest age admitted) approached me during a school trip to ask me to explain Kristallnacht. There's nothing more difficult than trying to explain that level of hate to a child.

Thank you for B’nai Tikvah for the amazing opportunity to share my grandfather’s story last week. Every new person who hears his story helps his memory live on.

Jerry Seinfeld has arrived in Israel for a solidarity visit ❤️
