Intergenerational Activities at Reuth’s Subsidized Community Housing – Perach Zahav Matanel

Aging can be a painful process as seniors contend with retirement, loss of friends and loved ones, a decline in functional ability, and more.

The vision of the project is to improve the quality of life of underprivileged seniors who are living in Reuth’s subsidized community housing.

Le nom des 86

En 1943, 86 juifs sont envoyés d’Auschwitz vers le camp de Struthof, en Alsace. Sur place, ils sont exécutés dans une chambre à gaz. August Hirt, directeur de l’Institut d’anatomie de Strasbourg, souhaite constituer une abjecte collection de squelettes. Des témoins et des experts reviennent sur l’un des plus tragiques épisodes de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, emblématique de la Shoah et des dérives de la science sous le nazisme. C’est aussi l’inlassable quête d’un historien allemand pour redonner un nom à ces êtres réduits à une liste de numéros.

The Saying of Matanel

Do not do to others what would be hateful if done to you. That is the whole of the Torah. All the rest is commentary. Now go and study.

Ethics of the Fathers, 2:7
