A Holocaust survivor defended his participation in a controversial video showing his family dancing

(15 Jul 2010) HEADLINE: Holocaust survivor's death camp dance flap CAPTION: A Holocaust survivor defended his participation in a controversial video showing his family dancing to "I Will Survive"' at Auschwitz, saying it was a celebration of his survival and ability to share history with his grandchildren. (July 15) THIS VIDEO OF A HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR DANCING TO DISCO-HIT "I WILL SURVIVE" HAS SPARKED A FIRESTORM IN GERMANY. BUT 89-YEAR-OLD ADOLEK KOHN SAYS HE WANTED TO EDUCATE YOUNGER GENERATIONS ABOUT THE HORRORS OF THE HOLOCAUST AND NAZI CONCENTRATION CAMPS. (SOT: Adolek Kohn, Holocaust survivor) "Why did I do that? First of all because I came with my grandchildren. Who would come with their grandchildren? I don't know how many people could come with their grandchildren because most of them are dead, most of them are dead. KOHN'S DAUGTHER, AN ARTIST, MADE THE VIDEO. (SOT: Jane Korman, daughter of Adolek Kohn and creator of video clip) "I have noticed that the word holocaust, everything related to it has become numb, numbing and de-sensitised, people are de-sensitised so I wanted to make some artwork that would awaken people and would make them think again about this past and how we could look at ourselves and beware of how we stereotype, how we prejudiced, how we are intolerant." THE VIDEO WAS FIRST DISPLAYED IN AN AUSTRALIAN ART GALLERY--BUT BECAME WIDELY SEEN WHEN IT WAS POSTED ON YOUTUBE EARLIER THIS YEAR. SHE DISAGREES WITH CRITICS WHO SAY IT DESECRATES THE MEMORIES OF HOLOCAUST VICTIMS. (SOT: Jane Korman, daughter of Adolek Kohn and creator of video clip) I ask them mom and dad what do you think, everybody, not everybody, but there have been negative responses, people have told you off, have said how dare you? and they replied we came from the ashes - now we dance." THE DIRECTOR OF THE TOPOGRAPHY OF TERROR MUSEUM IN BERLIN IS ONE OF THOSE WHO FINDS THE VIDEO IN POOR TASTE. (SOT: Andreas Nachama, Director of Topography of terror museum) "Survivors are no angels but just humans. Humans make mistakes and behave in different ways. I find his behaviour strange, inappropriate and wrong. But he himself obviously does not. (SOT: Adolek Kohn, Holocaust survivor) "We were dancing on graves also, but that's separate, a completely different thing, because we came with the grandchildren and created a new generation. (sot: Abraham Foxman, National Director Anti-Defamation League) (15:56:05) I understand the desire to celebrate survival, but I think it's limited to those who survived. THE HEAD OF THE ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE--A GROUP THAT FIGHTS ANTI-SEMITISM--SAYS HE ALSO WORRIES THAT USE THE VIDEO IN A MISLEADING WAY AND SEEK TO CHEAPEN THE LESSONS OF the HOLOCAUST.
