Episode #7 The Shoah in the East

In this episode, Jack Thurlow talks to Jaya about his article, 'The Shoah in the East' which details the shooting squads, the Einsatzgruppen, employed by the Nazis in eastern Europe. Article extract: The Holocaust is known by most for the murder of Jewish people in death camps such as Auschwitz-Birkenau, Treblinka and Chelmo. Familiarity is also found in the name of Bergen Belsen and the Warsaw Ghetto, and the names of Anne Frank, Oskar Schindler and Wladyslaw Szpilman ring synonymous in conversations about the Shoah. However, something that isn’t usually found in conversation is the unique topic of Eastern Europe and the horrific events that took place there in the early years of the 1940s.

Episode #6 Remembering Srebrenica 25 Years On: An Interview with Safet Vukalić

In this episode Jaya interviews Barnabas Balint, in whose article Bosnian genocide survivor Safet Vukalić recounted his experiences. In this episode they discuss both the article and their own experiences of interviewing survivors of genocides. Article extract: With his father and older brother arrested and taken to a concentration camp, Safet, his mother and sisters faced danger everyday as their idyllic life of school, sport, and play turned genocidal. His family eventually released, Safet has since built a life in the UK and dedicates much of his time to teaching others about genocide. ‘Our story’, he says, ‘should – and must – be heard’.  Edited by Rachel Kinnear.
