Manage episode 443761625 series 3605918
What happens when you make people wear yellow stars? What happens when you call them not by their first names, but by the names of animals and vermin? What happens when you separate them from their families, crowd them into tiny rooms, and restrict their access to food?
In this episode, I listen to the testimonies of Holocaust Survivor Slava Fintel and Second-Generation Holocaust Survivor Steve Fintel. We talk about dehumanization, what drives people towards senseless cruelty, the power of determination, and the psychology of human survival.
