Joe Samuels

Joseph Samuels was born in Baghdad, Iraq in 1930 and survived the Farhud massacre in 1941. His story illustrates the wider geographic scope of the Holocaust, which extended beyond Europe.

For over three decades, Holocaust Survivors have volunteered their time at the Museum of Tolerance to speak about their experiences during World War II. Over 50,000 visitors per year meet and hear a Holocaust survivor or 2nd generation speaker. These speakers are ambassadors of memory, hope, and tolerance.

The Museum of Tolerance is proud to present live testimonies each week. Hear from Witness to Truth speakers as they share personal accounts—either their own or their parent’s experiences during the Holocaust.

Included with admission. Each session includes a Q&A.

Please note: The featured speaker for this event has changed from Reva Stark to Joe Samuels.
