Words of Bonds Early Trailer

Presentation to raise funds for the production of a full-feature documentary, Words of Bonds.How do we ensure that never again isnt an empty slogan, or an aspiration, but also a call to action?, U.S. President Obama asked on Holocaust Remembrance Day in Washington D.C., and he offered a way in which do to that: 
BY BEARING WITNESS.
Words of Bonds has created an educational project that will do this and more by allowing New York City public and private students, teachers and parents to explore, engage with and express what they have learned about some of the darkest periods of history:
• The Nazi Holocaust of the Jews and many others during World War II
• The barbarity of the 400 year-long transatlantic African American slavery
Through visits to schools and cultural institutions, the Internet, and outreach into various communities, the Words of Bonds project allows students and educators to interact with these histories as Holocaust survivors and descendants of African American slaves tell the stories of these atrocities.
