The Rabbi and the Puppeteer : Rabbi Leo Baeck and “Honzo” David Ben Shalom

Rabbi Leo Baeck, ignoring his own safety and survival during the Holocaust was the savior for many refugees even from the inside of Theresienstadt concentration camp; his grandnephew Jan Baeck escaped the Czech Republic to a Palestine kibbutz and became a renown puppeteer appointed by UNESCO to promote peace among the children of Displaced Persons camps. Dr. Peter Lubrecht is Jan Baeck’s cousin who changed his name to Honzo David Ben Shalom. This presentation tells the tale of the strength and courage of these men during Holocaust Remembrance Day.
