Summary
Oral histories with Jews in the former Soviet Union reveal that age and gender are crucial factors for experiencing, surviving, and remembering the Nazi genocide in Soviet territories. These memories of atrocities and survival during the German occupation reflect complex negotiations of Jewish and Soviet identities and highlight how shared experiences of trauma facilitate community building within and beyond national groups.
