“We Remember: Songs of Survivors,” is a recent PBS Documentary that shares the stories of Holocaust survivors through songs written in collaboration with singer-songwriters. These songs, filled with joy and healing, celebrate the extraordinary lives of this resilient generation.

The We Remembers–the four musicians who participated in this project are Elizabeth Clark, Jude Roberts, Kelleigh McKenzie, and Michael Veitch. The group’s performances will include clips and stories from their life-changing collaborations with the Holocaust Survivors.
