As we mourn the deaths of those in the Tree of Life Synagogue
tragedy, it’s comforting to know that there are many good people in the world
who stand with us. November 9 will mark the 20th anniversary of the
Paper Clips Project in Whitwell, Tennessee, in which the teachers and students
of this small rural community undertook to understand the magnitude of the
death of the six million Jews who died in the Shoah. Our book, “Six Million
Paper Clips,” which documents this project, continues to sell well throughout
the world. Here are the remarks by our good friends and authors Peter Schroeder
and Dagmar Schroeder-Hildebrand, which will be read at the 20th
anniversary event.
