On May 3rd 2010, I heard a Holocaust Survivor named Dr. Alexander White at my school. He was saved by the schindler's list. He has a memoir called Be A Mensch. It is named that because that was the last thing he heard his father say to him before he was shipped off to a concentration camp and killed. He says it means to be a special human being that has integrity and honor. To be helpful and kind. To behave. To follow the ten commandments. To have a good character. Not to be evil.
