Overview

"""Being with One-by-One was a transforming experience. They are an inspiration and their words have served to overcome a deep-seated pessimism I hold about the sad state of the human condition, rekindling a flickering hope within me. If former enemies can come together and transcend what I previously believed could never be transcended, maybe, just maybe, there is still a reason to have hope for mankind."" -Elyse Gussow, United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, Washington, D.C. ""When I first heard about One-by-One, my mind embraced it, but my heart was cautious. I have since come to understand the suffering of the children of perpetrators and to deeply appreciate the great courage that enables them and the children of survivors to reach out to each other across the chasm. And I know more and more deeply how all of us human beings, especially if we have suffered greatly, must reconcile, embrace each other and help each other, and by our example, help everyone else heal."" -Erwin Staub, Child survivor of the Holocaust; Professor of Psychology, University of Massachusetts at Amherst; Author of The Roots of Evil: The Origins of Genocide and Other Group Violence ""We at Facing History appreciate the important work of your group in opening and sustaining dialogue. Bringing your experiences and insights to students adds a valuable, new dimension to their understanding of the relationship between the past and the present."" -Mark Skvirsky, National Program Director, Facing History and Ourselves"
