Holocaust survivor uses hip-hop music to fight racism
ASSOCIATED PRESS
"It's a clash of everything: age, culture, style," Bejaraano, a petite lady with an amiable chuckle, told The Associated Press before of Auschwitz Liberation Day on Wednesday. "But we all love music and share a common goal: were fighting against
Now, 65 years after the liberation of the Nazi death camp, the 85-year-old has teamed up with a hip-hop band to spread her anti-racism message to German youth.
BERLIN — Esther Bejarano said music helped keep her alive as a Jewish prisoner in Auschwitz and in the years that followed.
The daughter of a Jewish cantor from Saarbruecken in western Germany, Bejarano grew up in a musical home studying piano until the Nazis came to power and tore her family apart. Bejarano was deported to Auschwitz, where she became a member of the girls' orchestra, playing the accordion every time trains full of Jews from across Europe arrived.
racism and discrimination.
"We played with tears in our eyes," Bejarano remembered. "The new arrivals came in waving and applauding us, but we knew they would be taken directly to the gas chambers."
About two years ago, Kutlu Yurtseven, a Turkish immigrant rapper from the Cologne-based Microphone Mafia, got in touch with the band to see if they'd team up with them.
For the past 20 years Bejarano has played music mostly from the past — Yiddish melodies, tunes from the ghetto and Jewish resistance songs — with her children Edna and Yoram in a Hamburg-based band called Coincidence.
Bejarano survived, but her parents and sister Ruth were killed by the Nazis.
"Our band wanted to do something against the growing racism
and anti-Semitism in Germany,
Yurtseven, 36, said in a phone interview Tuesday.
Esther Bejarano, it turned out, thought hip-hop music "was really a bit too loud," but also said she saw it as a good way to reach out to Germany's youth.
"Yoram told me that first of all he had to ask his mother Esther what she thought about a crossover project with a bunch of young rappers."
"We want to keep the memories of the Holocaust alive, but at the same time look into the future and encourage young people to take a stand against new Nazis," said Bejarano.
