Redefining Retirement Living

The Berkley High School
Holocaust education program is
7 p.m. Monday, Feb. 7, in the
Berkley High School auditori-
um, 2325 Catalpa. The public
is welcome to attend at no
charge. The school's Holocaust
Museum will be open at 6 p.m.
For information, call the school,
(248) 837-8100.

Lichtman lived a story he calls "kind of
typical." When his hometown in France
was invaded, his mother went into hid-
ing and his father entered the army,
where he was killed. For five years,
Lichtman lived with a non-Jewish fami-
ly. Through involvement with the
Southfield-based Holocaust Education
Coalition, Lichtman has underwritten
the cost of speakers to the program.
A participant in several of the
school's yearly Holocaust programs, he
frequently answers such questions from
students as, "Did you know you were
Jewish?" His answer is, "It was a benefit
to not know, not being able to be
tricked. We were in more danger if we
knew we were Jewish."
Lichtman loaned the committee
some of the many genuine artifacts
entered in Berkley High's Holocaust
Museum, a display of photos and items
that students have exhibited at their
program for the last four years.
In addition to Ashley, Stoorman and
Frenkel, the committee includes Scott
Fischel, 18, of Berkley; Lia Wolock, 14,
of Royal Oak; and Emily Baker, 15, of
Huntington Woods. With students
graduating and new ones joining the
committee yearly, Linda Ashley says,
"The curriculum itself is written out so
it can be passed along."
For many, Maples says, the program
is "the first time some ever thought
about these things." She adds, "The
stress of our program is tolerance and
education. The only way to understand
is to listen and be tolerant."
For "many students at Berkley who
may not know anything about the
Holocaust," Linda Ashley sees the pro-
gram as a "real significant life-chang-
ing experience."
"It inspires me to do this," says
Samantha Ashley ❑
