Dr.
Julius Menn grew up in Poland and Palestine during the 1930s and
1940s. At the age of ten, he and his family were on an extended stay in
Poland from Tel Aviv when the German army invaded in September 1939. After
a year in Lithuania, the family returned to Palestine in October 1940. Mr.
Menn came to Bristol Community College on March 23, 2017 to describe how
his family narrowly escaped east to Lithuania by traveling through forests
and fields, dodging hunger. Over 100 people were in attendance at the
forum, the first in the spring series. The
BCC
Holocaust Center provides historical information, educational
experiences, and multimedia resources to communicate the suffering, pain
and deaths of innocent millions during the Holocaust and other
