"I want to thank the Wiesenthal Center for Courage to Remember for this educational venture, I want to thank SNCF, it is interesting in the State Legislature, and I am going to talk about experience this past few years. You know California is thinking about embarking on ahigh speed rail endeavor and there are numbers of companies that wish to apply for the resources to develop and wish to develop this. During and I served on the transportation committee and during the hearings some of the hearings on a bill that was, SNCF was brought out and criticized because of their role during the second world war in the movement of Jews to the death camps. It was a horrible experience it was very difficult and painful just listening to this on the committee but I really want to applaud SNCF for acknowledging what took place, for saying that’s not who we are, that for stepping forward to educate people on what the Holocaust was all about, for being here for this exhibit, it is really a wonderful tribute to a company and I think it really reflects what we are here about, to remember, to remember and to grow from it….” 
“It may have been more than 75 years since the Holocaust, but violence motivated by race and ethnic background make up more than half of all hate crimes in Florida, and more than 65 percent of anti-religious hate crimes are against Jews, vastly more than any other religious group. 
… I want to thank the Museum of Tolerance, Sac State University, the Foundation and especially to the Société Nationale des Chemins de fer Français SNCF in France for making this commitment so far away from France, obviously a very meaningful exhibit for you ..There is a movie out now right now along these same lines called Sarah's Key, I do not know if there is sort of a reawakening in France, I know I have been back to the Shoah Memorial back there and I am glad to see the Holocaust is being remembered in France as it is in other parts of the world.
The Holocaust 1933-1945

This series, unique in range and scope, is ideal for commemorative or educational use in community centers, high schools and universities, libraries, synagogues and churches, and by other interested organizations and individuals.
