As Yom Hashoah approaches, we remember the 6 million Jews murdered in the Holocaust. But we often overlook the stories of those who survived. Historian Jenna Weissman Joselit wrote recently about how the term ‘survivors’ came to be used. Join Tablet as we talk further with Jenna about the experiences of the displaced persons who lived—and where they eventually found new homes.
