Second Generation Singers

Each year at Yom Hashoah we sing Zog Nit Keynmol — the song adopted by the partisans and universally acknowledged as a song of resistance.

It is a deeply moving experience to watch the survivors in the audience singing and remembering those acts of resistance — large and small — that they witnessed in the Holocaust. At the suggestion of a member of the Second Generation, we are inviting children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of survivors to join us in creating a very special tribute to survivors at Yom Hashoah 2026.

With the help of Devra Lerner, a music educator and choir leader, we invite you to join us in learning both the history behind the song and to perform the song at Yom Hashoah along with cantorial support and the Hyman Brand Hebrew Academy Choir.
