In June, 2022, I was invited to participate, as a long time HMLA docent, in a writing workshop for 2G’s. I am always interested in interacting with other 2G’s and I like to write, so it seemed like a perfect combination for me. What I did not know was what a meaningful experience this was going to be, one which I don’t want to end. It has been so rewarding hearing the stories of my fellow 2G’s, getting to know others who come from a background like my own, and understanding their stories as they understand mine on a level of shared experiences. As with most things I do at the museum, I always seem to receive as much, if not more, than I give and I want to thank our wonderful facilitator, Michele Gold, for leading us on this fulfilling journey.

3G@HMLA is a community for grandchildren of Holocaust survivors who are helping to shape the future of Holocaust remembrance and education. Our mission is based on memory, education, community, and social action, drawing on our own personal connections as stewards of our grandparents' legacies and the rich resources and support of Holocaust Museum LA.
Our 3G@HMLA group is committed to carrying on our grandparents' stories and legacies which live in our personal histories and in our DNA. It is our responsibility to remember, it is our responsibility to educate, and it is our responsibility to inspire. As a 3G group, we stand for commemorating our past, changing the future, and creating a world of mutual respect. We teach how hate, discrimination, and prejudices lead to one of the worst chapters in human history. The Holocaust was a Jewish tragedy, but also a tragedy for all of humanity. What we do matters, and education helps us to close the gaps that divide us.
