Kindertransport Quilts
Southfield resident Merry Silber
will speak and present images of
"The Quilts of the Kindertransport"
at 11 a.m. Wednesday, June 6, at the
Holocaust Memorial Center.
In her presentation, Silber, an
antique quilt authority, tells how it
became her mission and passion to
address this aspect of Holocaust his-
tory — where 10,000 children were
evacuated to England from Germany
and Czechoslovakia.
Using slides of the quilt blocks
sent to her by the children of the
Kindertransport, she relates the
stories of their families' courage,
sacrifice and bravery — the quilts
tell the saga in the words of the child
survivors.
Copies of the book
Kindertransport Memory Quilt, con-
taining full color photos and narra-
tives of the children, will be avail-
able for purchase following Silber's
presentation.
The HMC is located on the
