They ran the program and introduced their father, who received HMC's 2006 Pillar Award at the event Monday at Adat Shalom Synagogue in Farmington Hills before a crowd of about 800. "The logo of the Holocaust Memorial Center is zachor, remember," Adam said. "That is active remembering, not passive. We will teach it to others and future generations. My grandparents and parents passed it to me, and'I hope to pass it to [my children]." Josh spoke of how the brothers spent their entire lives watching the develop- ment of the HMC, and of the influence it has had on them. "We will be involved adults:' Josh said. "My generation will be unwaver- ing in making certain the Holocaust will not be forgotten." They also acknowledged their mother, Marci, and two grandmothers, Diane Grant and Esther Steinway. Dr. Steven Grant, president and CEO of the United Physicians Group, hugged his sons, and gave a brief speech about what the HMC has meant to him. He concluded with, "Go, Tigers:' The din- ner occurred during the second game of the World Series. Rabbi Charles Rosenzveig, HMC founder and CEO, reminisced about Dr. Grant's longtime involvement, then introduced young people from Berkley High School and Lawrence Technological University who are members of the HMC's new International Peace Corps of the Righteous. They will spread its mes- sage of altruism to others throughout Michigan. The final speaker was Edwin Black, Pulitzer Prize-nominated author of Banking on Baghdad, IBM and the Holocaust and his newest, Internal Combustion, about the West's addic- tion to oil. Perhaps misjudging his audience, which included many eager to catch the Tigers' game, the normally engag- ing Black lectured for an hour, first giv- ing a history of transportation before getting to his major points. One was that Hitler needed oil to take over Russia, so he cut a deal with Arab Semites. "Even a Hitler would work with peo- ple he hated to destroy the Jews, and oil was the nexus," Black explained. Another point: We need to go back to over a century ago, when all cars were electric. He uncovered documents that show Henry Ford and Thomas Edison had secret plans to turn to clean electric batteries to run cars. They spent millions, Black said, to develop and ship batteries from New Jersey to Michigan, but the batteries never worked once they left the lab because of tampering along the way. "Today, we will do anything to main- tain our addiction to oil',' Black finally told a dwindling audience. "It has affected our climate, lungs, treasury, destroyed the American way of life. What's the price — the extermination of Israel. "Where did Iran and oil states get the money to fund Hamas? Where do insurgents in Lebanon get money? From us. Our addiction is fueling this ... all who drive help this cause." Yet he feels we can get off our oil addiction and points to electric- and hydrogen-powered vehicles as one path.
