Hi all,
I’ve arrived in Warsaw, and just finished my first day of work here–I miss you all! I’ve been thinking a lot about the theme of our class and our work together, mostly because I have no cell phone here, and can only email after I finish work for the day.
Today, we arrived in Warsaw in the early afternoon and then went from the airport immediately to a myriad of sites–below you will find an image of a memorial at the Gensha Cemetery–the largest Jewish cemetery in the world with tombstones dating back several centuries. The image I am choosing to share is one of the memorial for Janusz Korczak, the pen name of Henryk Goldszmit, a writer, educator, and pediatrician who opted to refuse freedom for himself, and instead accompany the orphans from his orphanage to Treblinka.
