Jewish

Introduction

The interview which spells out Rosa Goldberg’s testimony was carried out on May 19^th, 1996, in Jacksonville Florida, her domicile at the time. The interview was carried out by the archivist Sara Leuchter and recorded in an hour long audio cassette tape. In total, the interviews lasted six and a half hours, with a transcript length of 127 pages. Rachel Rosa Goldberg Katz was born on December 5^th, 1923 in Poland, Wlodzimierz [also known by the short form Lodz], to an affluent liberal Jewish family. As the Germans continued to occupy Lodz in 1939, Rosa was among the Jews, in their thousands, crowded in the city’s ghetto. She was 15 at the time.

Subsequently, Rosa is separated from her mother who is deported from the ghetto which was to be liquidated in August 1944. The starving residents thereof including Rosa, her brother, father and sister-in-law got transferred to Auschwitz. After working at the Krupp munitions in Berlin fortuitously, assembling German bombs, Rosa was ultimately transferred to Ravensbruck death camp in Germany. Eventually, the Swedish Red Cross liberates the Ravensbruck camp, but not before meeting Bernard Katz who would later be her husband to take her to the US in 1948. This confession therefore comes against this backdrop.
