Summary
Videotape testimony of Bronia K., who was born in Grodno, Poland (presently Hrodna, Belarus) in 1923. She describes her childhood; a pogrom which took place in Grodno in 1936; her involvement in a Zionist socialist youth organization, which led to her becoming active in the Resistance; the ghettoization of Grodno; her life in the Grodno ghetto; her resistance activities in the Białystok ghetto and on the Aryan side with false papers; and her return to Grodno after liberation to find that her entire family had been killed. Mrs. K.'s resistance activities included smuggling arms; acting as a courier between ghettos; and finding a hiding place for the archives of the Białystok ghetto which had been collected by Mordecai Tenenbaum and which included oral histories of survivors of liquidated ghettos.
