"We're living in a time where what's happening in our country is scary and reminiscent of what we've seen happen in the past, and we just hope that we can all survive this and that we can hold on to our democracy,"
"be resilient"
Rob Reiner recorded a Hanukkah message in early October urging Holocaust survivors to "be resilient" during difficult times. He noted that his wife's extended family was killed at Auschwitz, giving the ceremony special meaning for him. Reiner and his wife, Michele, were found stabbed to death at their Los Angeles home; their 32-year-old son, Nick Reiner, has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder and is being held without bail. The video was broadcast during a virtual candle-lighting ceremony on the fifth night of Hanukkah organized by the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany. Around 100 Holocaust survivors gathered at the Western Wall in Jerusalem for the ceremony.
