Theirs was an unexpected friendship--she was in elementary school when they met, and he was an aging Holocaust survivor whose memoir she had read--and together they were going to change the American education system. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Alter had spent decades speaking to audiences of all ages and backgrounds about the Holocaust, teaching that \"never forgetting\" could help spread tolerance and prevent such an atrocity from happening again. But Claire knew hate crimes were still being committed, in her own town and even in her own school. She didn't want Alter's efforts on Holocaust education to be in vain. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e From strangers to friends to law-changing history makers, Claire and Alter's mission was always simple: Remember this story. This page-turning memoir is a tribute to a man who survived the worst of humanity, an ode to friendship and community, and an empowering call to activism.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eClaire Sarnowski \u003c\/b\u003espearheaded Senate Bill 664 (2019), which mandated Holocaust and Genocide Education in Oregon schools.
