This meeting was organized as part of the great cycle of testimonies with the survivors of the Nazi camps that began on January 26, 2020.
Born in 1935 in Demblin (Poland), Izio was raised in a Yiddish culture imbued with the communist ideal. During the summer roundups of 1942, he was hidden with his sisters by a carpenter. In the summer of 1944, the family was taken to the Czestochowa internment camp. Izio was then deported to Buchenwald where the communist resistance protected him in block 66 of the children. After the liberation of the camp, he was welcomed in France into the homes of the Œuvre de secours aux enfants (OSE).
This last testimony was recorded on January 18, 2021.

With Bloodlands. L'Europe entre Hitler et Staline, a bestseller published by Gallimard in 2012, Timothy Snyder decisively renewed the historiography of the European continent during the 1930s and 1940s. In this fascinating account, 1941 appears as the pivotal year to grasp the relations between the Nazi and Soviet systems. The American historian does us the honor of returning to the major issues at stake during this decisive year in the course of the Second World War and the fate of European Jews.
