The Grant Center for the Jewish American Experience hosted a series of significant event in which Holocaust survivor Rose Rosenkranz, the subject of the play “Only Miracles,” visited schools in the New Orleans area. During her heartfelt presentations, she shared her harrowing experiences during the Holocaust and the challenges she faced as a young immigrant moving to the United States. Rose’s powerful story resonated deeply with students, fostering important discussions about resilience, hope, and the critical lessons of history. Her visit not only educated the youth about the Holocaust but also inspired them to appreciate the values of compassion and understanding in today’s world.
