As part of our story on rising antisemitism in the U.S. and New Jersey, NJ Spotlight News spoke with Holocaust survivor Betty Grebenschikoff, who experienced the November 1938 pogrom "Kristallnacht" -- or the Night of Broken Glass -- while an eight-year-old girl in Berlin. Her family fled Germany only weeks later, as her father was about to be arrested by the Gestapo. But her grandparents perished at Auschwitz. Betty, her sister and parents spent 20 years in Shanghai, then moved to Australia and finally made it to the U.S. in 1953.
She's written a book about her experiences, called "Once My Name Was Sara." Now a resident of Ventnor, she actively works with Stockton University's Sara & Sam Schoffer Holocaust Resource Center giving lectures and fighting antisemitism. See more information here: [ Ссылка ]
