were carried out of the
hospital.
"Wasn't that the sofa you
delivered to Dr. Masurik?"
the hospital officials asked.
"Yes, and he doesn't like it,"
Alex replied.
After the war, the Roslans
left Poland for the United
States. They settled in Clear-
water, Fla., where word of
their rescue of the Gilat boys
got out.
The news was greeted by
some Polish neighbors with
contempt. As one neighbor
put it: "So what if there had
been 6 million and two Jews
killed?"
The Roslans are now living
in Tampa, Fla. Yurek was
murdered by the Nazis for his
activities in the Polish
resistance movement.
What do Alex and Mela
Roslan mean to me as a Jew?
Do I have any obligation to
the still unknown Roslans,
wherever they may be today?
We Jews have in our collec-
tive memories recollections
that possess restorative
powers for the traumatized
conscience of post-Holocaust
generations. There are per-
sons and events that will be
doomed to oblivion unless
Jewish memory offers
testimony. Through the lives
of the rescuers, I have learn-
ed the lameness of the alibi
that there were no alter-
natives to complicity with the
Nazis.
I have learned that a con-
spiracy of goodness permitted
the rescue of hunted Jews, a
conspiracy that required
passive and active collabora-
tion of milkmen, servants and
policemen, and the courage to
bite one's tongue when
interrogated.
Some 6,000 persons have
been recognized as "righteous
among the nations" at the
Yad Vashem memorial in
Jerusalem. These names have
been gathered slowly. Their
inclusion depends upon the
initiative and good will of sur-
viving witnesses and the
economic and physical capaci-
ty of the rescuers to come to
Jerusalem. There are many
more Christians and other
Gentiles whose altruism
towards Jews is unknown and
unrecorded.
It is not always easy for sur-
vivors to accept a sense of
obligation to these people. A
woman who bears the scars of
Buchenwald told me, "I
myself say nothing of such
heroism. No gentile helped
me. No Christian hid me."
Other survivors
acknowledge the existence of
heroic rescuers but are so
pained by the enormity of the
Nazi crime that the slightest

The Righteous
shaft of light seems to com-
promise the depth of the
darkness.
How many rescuers there
were is not known, in part
because an active search for
them has not been part of the
Jewish agenda. But we are
taught that 10 righteous peo-
ple alone would have spared
the inhabitants of Sodom
(Genesis 18:32). The
righteous, whatever their
number, must be held up and
celebrated so that others will
be inspired to emulate them.
After Auschwitz, the pre-
Holocaust conceits of
automatic progress, the
goodness and perfectibility of
human nature cannot and
ought not be resurrected. The
naive faith that education can
immunize society against the
diseases of xenophobia,
racism and anti-Semitism is
mocked by the record of
Hitler's professors and
cultured theologians. It is a
demoralizing revelation that

men who can quote Goethe,
Kant and Hegel, who can play
Bach, Beethoven and
Brahms, can then push the
button that releases Zyklon B
gas, suffocating innocent
children.
Yet as we hunt down the
sadistic torturers of in-
nocence, we also must search
out the men and women of
flesh and blood who pro-
tected, hid, healed and saved
the persecuted.
These morally courageous
rescuers may encourage us to
educate children of the post-
Holocaust generations, Jews
and non-Jews, to follow in
their footsteps.
Goodness is a more power-
ful challenge and inspiration
to people than evil.
In knowing these extraor-
dinary, yet ordinary, people
and how they acted, we are
tested. Compared to Nazi
sadists and their col-
laborators, I am inarguably
morally superior. But how am
I compared to Alex and Mela
Roslan?
In this sense goodness is
harder to confront than evil.
But it is essential, if we mean
to raise a generation that will
not repeat yesterday's moral
betrayal.
