(MILWAUKEE) – This month, the world marks the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp in Poland. In Milwaukee, an exhibit is open for the first time on U.S. soil shedding new light on a diary found in the rubble of the Nazi death camp.
On CBS 58 Sunday Morning, Shirley Descorbeth visited Jewish Museum Milwaukee where that young girl's story is being preserved so that a new generation never forgets.
