3GTO - Toronto Descendants of Holocaust Survivors 3GTO is a Toronto-based grassroots community formed by grandchildren of Holocaust survivors. TO for Toronto.

Our mission is to share their stories and legacy to future generations and students. 3GTO is a Toronto-based grassroots community formed by grandchildren (3G) of Holocaust survivors. Our mission is to share their stories and legacies to future generations.

3G stands for 3rd generation. Grandchildren of survivors are the LAST direct link to the stories, images and themes of the holocaust. Holocaust education is hitting a stumbling block in formal education in Canada. Our survivors are almost 100 years old, and their numbers are increasingly diminishing. We, as 3G, have the opportunity to carry on their legacy, by crafting our story, and empowering ourselves to educate children. The future generation must understand that is not just an empty phrase. We are actively seeking community members to join our organization in an effort to ensure the stories of our grandparents survival is never forgotten.

Never again is NOW. We must continue to share the stories of 80 years ago as we are all seeing that history has the ability to repeat itself. Every 100 years or so there is a rampant global rise in antisemitism, and I fortunately, the event of the last 100+ days has shown us that there is a deeply engrained Jew hatred In society.

Canadian Holocaust survivors speak out against hate.

Resilience and strength in its purest form.

What’s your thoughts on this? Is this about the subject matter that was read aloud (reminder Anne was 12 when she wrote that passage), or is this about Jewish/Holocaust studies as a broader topic?

The teacher read a passage with sexual content from an oft-contested graphic adaptation of the Holocaust diary, which uses Frank's words.

The world has lost another legend. May her memory be a blessing. 😢
