Things We Take For Granted | Stanly Abramovits on Displaced Persons | USC Shoah Foundation

Stanly Abramovits was born in Kalisz, Poland in 1920. In 1935, as Poland became increasingly dangerous for Jews, Stanly secured an immigration visa to England, where his father’s relatives resided. Shortly after World War II ended in 1945, Stanly joined the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee’s relief efforts at Feldafing, a displaced persons camp in Munich, Germany.

In this clip, Stanly recalls Holocaust survivors’ fascination with something he took for granted.
