Mayor Steve Fulop of Jersey City tells his family’s holocaust story

Steve Fulop, the mayor of Jersey City, is the grandson of Holocaust survivors. Here, he introduces his mother, Carmen Kohn Fulop of Edison, who was born in Romania after the war ended, and she introduces a video of her late mother, Roza Kohn, made in 1995, telling her terrible story of Auschwitz and Mengele.

Hate and antisemitism are rising, Mr. Fulop tells us. The more we know of what hate and antisemitism did, the more equipped we will be to recognize it and fight it.
