In the middle of Europe, in the middle of the 20th Century a half million Jewish men, women & children were cut off, surrounded by the German occupiers, imprisoned behind walls. How do you tell the world about your life and fate? Historian and activist Emanuel Ringelblum devised and directed a clandestine archive- codename Oyneg Shabes (Joy of the Sabbath) to chronicle every aspect of their existence. He recruited over 60 'zamlers' or gatherers to write & compile thousands of pages-diaries, essays, poems, photographs, statistical studies, art, ephemera -a historical treasure that was buried even as the Ghetto was being extinguished so that the world might read and understand. Listen to their stories

10. Out of the Ruins. In the aftermath of the war, Warsaw was nothing but rubble. Rachel Auerbach one of only 3 members of the Oyneg Shabes to survive. Her urgent calls to rescue the archive, buried in the ruins of the vanished ghetto, were answered when the first tranche rediscovered in 1947.
Narration by Anton Lesser. With Tracy-Ann Oberman as Rachel Auerbach. Translation by Sarah Traister Moskowitz. Historical Adviser Samuel Kassow. Written & produced by Mark Burman.
