What does survival really look like when the world you knew is gone?
Pam Feinberg-Rivkin sits with Dr. Jenny Frumer and Carol Weinstein to honor the life of Carol’s father, Joe Rubenfeld, who survived eight concentration camps, including Auschwitz, after being separated from his family at just 11 years old. Carol shares the pieces of her father’s story that he was able to tell, the mysterious words he repeated every day to stay alive, and the unexpected reunion that eventually brought him to family in New York.
The conversation moves gently through the realities that followed liberation. Nightmares that echoed for decades. A return to Auschwitz later in life that finally quieted those dreams. A man who carried survivor’s guilt yet chose to live with generosity, faith, and forgiveness. From becoming the beloved candy man at temple to teaching his children to always say thank you, Joe’s resilience shaped generations.
Dr. Jenny Frumer reflects on intergenerational trauma, the strength of second and third generation families, and the mission of the Holocaust Learning Experience to bring stories of courage and moral clarity into classrooms across the country. Together, the conversation honors both vulnerability and resilience, and the responsibility we carry to remember, to teach, and to keep these stories alive.
