Thanks for this presentation. Very sad. Not much is said about the Several Jewish families that converted to the mennonite faith. Lots of Jewish names inside Mennonite faith.
I was interested in the history of relationships between mennonites and jews in eastern europe because of sad and personal outcomes with founders effect and BRCA mutations in my family. Mennonite descended families here in Kansas USA are just riven with these mutations so there must have been more than just murder going on. A lot of my family and Kansas mennonites settled here in Kansas in waves before the world wars. We are all having hysterectomies and mastectomies or dying of breast cancer or ovarian cancer. We must have some biological relationship to the jews of eastern europe. I almost feel Jewish. Humans can be so savage but there must also be love.
Stalin came on power 1917 he founded the communist party 1922. From 1917 to 1932 million people was killed by the Sowjetunion secret service. The UDSSR took over one country after another country by brutal force. I really will pray for this young woman.
The Holocaust is an important event people need to know about, but ignoring the USSR is not justifiable in any way. And let's be honest, that's what is done. "Religion was looked down upon."
Thank you for expanding my knowledge!
