Eva Mozes Kor says victims are still victims if they can’t get past it — a remarkable statement from a woman who survived one of the worst atrocities in history.
Born in a tiny village in Romania, Mozes Kor was 10 when her family was shipped to the Auschwitz concentration camp. More than 70 years later, the 81-year-old Mozes Kor clearly isn’t a victim.
On Thursday, Mozes Kor, the founder of CANDLES: Children of Auschwitz Nazi Deadly Lab Experiments Survivors and a accompanying museum and education center in Indiana, will be the keynote speaker at the Anti-Defamation League’s 4th Annual Governor’s Holocaust Remembrance Program.
The program at Temple Emanuel, 51 Grape St., will also include comments from Gov. John Hickenlooper and a candle-lighting ceremony memorializing victims of the Holocaust.
The ceremony begins at 6 p.m.
