In Part 2 of "Inheriting Memory," host Rebecca Saparacio continues her conversation with Degi Ruben, a third-generation Holocaust descendant. Degi shares how the legacy of her grandparents’ survival, as well as her mother’s experiences as a child of survivors, has shaped her worldview, sense of responsibility, and commitment to Jewish education. They discuss how inherited trauma can subtly shape parenting, why teaching the Holocaust in its specificity remains crucial, and what gives her hope for preserving this history. With a focus on embracing Judaism as a living, joyful experience, Degi offers a heartfelt message on how to combat hate by actively celebrating and passing down Jewish identity. This episode is an inspiring reflection on resilience, legacy, and the power of education.
