This is amazing: a piece on the ABC News web site describes a group of Jewish families who survived the war by hiding in caves. It's the ultimate genealogy story. These people went to extraordinary lengths to survive - for the sake of their children, their religion, their legacy.
A new documentary traces the life stories of these 38 families who dwelled in darkness for almost two years. It's called "No Place on Earth". I cannot WAIT to see it. It's only playing in select cities right now.
It's an uplifting tale on this somber Holocaust Remembrance Day - the 68th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. It echoes the joy of all who were saved that day - and honors the memories of the six million Jews who were not.
Please pause and think today for the millions who were lost - and the millions more who had to continue living without them.
