Matt Majka’s first lesson in the Holocaust wasn’t a textbook—it was seeing the shoes at the @HolocaustMuseum. Now a HS teacher, he brings that experience to his classroom as a responsibility, not just a unit. 👇 How did you first learn about the Holocaust? #HolocaustEducation

Why the shoes? 👟 The JFTL logo honors Mark Schonwetter’s survival. This May, walk, run, or ride 15 miles—the distance Mark walked in one night to escape the Nazis—to support Holocaust Education. Register: tinyurl.com/4tv846jy #JFTL #MSHEF #HolocaustEducation

Zofia Dziedzic Trojan was just a child when she helped her parents hide #MarkSchonwetter & family from the Nazis—risking everything to keep them safe. This #WomensHistoryMonth, we honor Zofia’s quiet courage and the power of choosing compassion over fear. #NeverForget #Holocaust
