During an afternoon visit to the Zekelman Holocaust Museum this past Sunday, we listened to Survivor Irene Miller speak about her experiences and purchased her compelling book, Into No Man’s Land, A Historical Memoir. Irene is a renowned author, a speaker, educator, and mediator. Irene details her objectives on her website irenemillerspeaker.com
Give a face to the darkest chapter of human history.
Promote tolerance and diversity.
Inspire positive action, including anti-bullying.
Empower people to overcome obstacles in life, by example.
We can read about her tireless and extraordinary efforts to combat hate.
“Irene Miller will take you on a survival journey little written and known about. You will sleep in the winter under an open sky on the no man’s land; you will freeze in a Siberian labor camp where the bears come to your door front. In Uzbekistan, you will live on boiled grass or broiled onions, and shiver with malaria. You will spend years in orphanages. When this is over you will wonder how a child with this background grows up to become a positive, creative, accomplished woman with a joy of living and love to share.”
