Dr. Limor Regev, author of the internationally acclaimed book The Boy from Block 66, will be sharing an inspiring and powerful presentation.

At the heart of the book is the true story of how a Czech political prisoner, Antonin Kalina, and the underground resistance in Buchenwald risked their lives to save over 1,000 Jewish boys. This act of bravery, largely unknown to the public, reveals that even in the darkest places, humanity can prevail.

What makes this presentation special?

  • Discover the little-known, powerful story of Block 66 in Buchenwald, where a Czech political prisoner and the underground resistance saved 1,000 Jewish boys. A story of unimaginable cruelty—and extraordinary humanity that highlights the lasting impact of racism and the difference one person can make.
  • Learn how the life story of a 90-year-old Holocaust survivor—originally written as a personal gift—turned into an international bestseller.
  • It includes rare, authentic photos and is suitable for young teens and adults alike.
  • Presented by an experienced academic lecturer, based on deep historical research and rich with verified details.

“This book should be mandatory reading for all high schools. It will stay in my heart and mind. The writing is superb. I am so glad this account was shared in such a meaningful way. If you want to have a better understanding of what the Nazi prisoners endured – please take the time and read this wonderful book”. (Amazon, January 2023)
