Voices of the Next Generations
Next generations of former prisoners of the Sachsenhausen concentration camp tell their stories
Why we are here
In October 2021 around 20 descendants of former Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp prisoners started the project Voices of the next generations. This website provides a platform for personal, historical and artistic reflections on the ongoing effects of persecution and murder at National Socialism. All the descendants of former Sachsenhausen concentration camp prisoners are invited to share their voices, to discuss how history continues to influence societies today and to shape the future of remembrance. What is your story? [ more ]

„Shoe Test #2“ is part of a larger body of proposed work by George Saxon that uses moving image, text, duration and performance to explore extreme endurance of forced labour at Sachsenhausen concentration camp.
