As world leaders gather in Poland Monday to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz death camp in Poland, Edith Friedman Grosman will be far away in Toronto, Canada.
On Monday, the energetic 95-year-old, who was on the first official transport of Jews to Auschwitz, plans to live-stream the ceremony from home, but only if she feels up to it.
She’s already returned to Auschwitz four times, and that’s enough.
“I’m glad they’re doing something for Auschwitz 75,” she told The Washington Post. “But they have to do something in 100 years and 125 years, too.”
