Inge Auerbacher Joins CCHS

Photo: It was an incredible image in an amazing moment at CCHS. The Nazi's forced her to wear it. Inge Auerbacher lives to share it so that none of us will be bystanders ever again. CCHS: small school big impact.


On Sunday October 6th, here at CCHS, Inge Auerbacher came and shared her story. Inge, a Holocaust survivor, told of the events in her life that she went through involving Nazis, concentration camps, and dealing with death. The trials and hardships that she went through among millions of other people were hard to hear. Even so, she showed us the star that was sewn onto her clothes as a child, and it was very striking to see. We should feel so lucky to hear first hand of someone who has experienced such an event like this. If you missed the event and would like to find out more about Inge she has written multiple books. Such as I Am a Star, Beyond the Yellow Star to America, Running Against the Wind, and Highway to New York: A Lady Truckdriver Adventure.
