The time has come to raise our voices as 2Gs to advocate for compensation. Let the trauma of the holocaust end with us and our children. Science now upholds the anecdotal evidence o f the intergenerational transmission of stress. The field of epigenetic study is gathering more evidence. We covered up our stress and anxiety, reactivity etc. so as to protect our parents, and yes even our own children. Therapy is and was expensive, how many were not able to access the best minds for a life more free? In retirement, free to live our best lives, free of the negative fall out or pressure to perform, can we not militate in our own behalf and that of others?
Why do people with no holocaust background speak for us, distribute monies for a variety of causes, and ignore the needy survivors still in our midst? And when they are gone will Holocaust monies still go for programs and museums and hotel rooms and air travel and embezzlers in the Claims Commission? Given, many good things have occurred as a result of the Commission’s work. But no fiduciary oversight means that power corrupts, and has in the past.
The increased anti-semitism in the world today undercuts the argument that education, museums displays and such diminish racism, anti-semitism and other ills. Yes, in healthy democratic societies. But when global warming creates strife across the globe, tribalism, populism in politics , all in the race for survival, returns. The old hates re-emerge, in the jockeying for position of best assets. IMHO. Jews will remain “the Other”. Something about being a 2G makes many of us the canary in the mine. We always knew the dark damp mines existed, right along with childhood monsters.
