The story of how a group of around 60 Jews imprisoned by the Nazi regime in the Warsaw Ghetto secretly worked on archiving their rich history in wartime Poland, has powerful resonances today, as journalists continue to be killed simply for telling the truth. That's the view of writer-director-producer Roberta Grossman, and executive producer, Nancy Spielberg – sister of legendary Hollywood director Stephen Spielberg – whose new film “Who Will Write Our History” was screened recently at UN Headquarters. For this edition of our Lid Is On podcast from UN News, they sat down with Jessica Jiji during the UN's Holocaust remembrance commemorations in New York, to talk about their film and the extraordinary members of the clandestine “Oyneg Shabes” group, who were prepared to “die writing”.  

«Saranno i tedeschi a scrivere la nostra storia o saremo noi?» si chiese Emanuel Ringelblum, uno dei principali esponenti della sinistra sionista filo marxista. La risposta fu la creazione della ‘Oyneg Shabes’ (letteralmente la Gioia del Sabato), uno società segreta attorno alla quale chiamò a raccolta le migliori energie della vivace intellighenzia yiddish polacca di quegli anni: economisti, scrittori, rabbini, commercianti, insegnanti. Sionisti, socialisti e comunisti. A tutti distribuì taccuini: «Scrivete tutto, tutto è importante, ogni cosa che vedete.» "Who will write our history", scritto e diretto da Roberta Grossman, è uno straordinario documentario sulla storia dell’archivio segreto del ghetto di Varsavia. Una ricostruzione con filmati, immagini d’archivio, interviste a storici ed esperti degli orrori della storia del ghetto di Varsavia tra il 1940 e il 1942. Sessantamila pagine scritte dal collettivo di Oyneg Shabes prima che il ghetto fosse raso al suolo. Una testimonianza straordinaria inclusa nel Registro Unesco della Memoria del Mondo. A cura di Mariangela Matonte per Radio Bullets.

In November 1940, days after the Nazis sealed 450,000 Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto, a secret band of journalists, scholars and community leaders decided to fight back. Led by historian Emanuel Ringelblum and known by the code name Oyneg Shabes, this clandestine group vowed to defeat Nazi lies and propaganda not with guns or fists but with pen and paper. Now, for the first time, their story is told as a feature documentary. Written, produced and directed by Roberta Grossman, based upon the book Who Will Write Our History? by Samuel D. Kassow, and executive produced by Nancy Spielberg, Who Will Write Our History mixes the writings of the Oyneg Shabes archive with new interviews, rarely seen footage, and stunning dramatizations (shot on location in Lodz and Warsaw, Poland) to transport us inside the Ghetto and the lives of these courageous resistance fighters. They defied their murderous enemy with the ultimate weapon – the truth – and risked everything so that their archive would survive the war, even if they did not. Featuring the voices of three-time Academy Award nominee Joan Allen and Academy Award winner Adrian Brody, the film honors the Oyneg Shabes  members’ determination in creating the most important cache of eyewitness accounts to survive the war. Director / producer / writer Roberta Grossman joins us to talk about how her passion for social justice led her to Emanuel Ringelblum and what Who Will Write Our History can teaches about the world we live in today.

“Hava Nagila” is perhaps the best-known Jewish song in the United States. Jewish and non-Jewish wedding and bar/bat mitzvah attendees alike know that its first few notes are our cue to link arms on the dance floor and drag or be dragged through a never-ending and increasingly chaotic hora. But how many people know that the song originated not in Israel (Hebrew lyrics not withstanding) but in Ukraine, and that its greatest ambassador was not Jewish at all? In Hava Nagila (The Movie), a documentary that opens in a limited theatrical release this month, director Roberta Grossman traces the song’s history from a Hasidic enclave in the Pale of Settlement to Palestine and then the United States. She also looks at how affection for the song has waxed and waned, in some ways reflecting American Jews’ (and others’) relationship to Jewishness, through interviews with actor Leonard Nimoy, singers and musicians
