  • Summary

  • Ben Lesser was born in Kraków, Poland in 1928 and his life changed at age ten when the German army invaded his city.

    Ben's childhood and teen years would be spent in terror, surviving countless acts of violence by Nazi soldiers in the Bochnia Ghetto, two separate death trains, a seven-week death march, and four different concentration camps — Auschwitz-Birkenau, Durnhau, Buchenwald and Dachau.

    In this powerful podcast episode, Mr. Lesser shares how his desire to survive helped him beat the staggering low odds of coming out of Auschwitz alive, and how despite all the evil he endured, how he learned to forgive and to love everyone.

    Please watch this episode and share with everyone you know. Not for my benefit. But to get Mr. Lesser's experience, strength, and hope out into the world.
