What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Paysach Krohn’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

this past week Mrs Russel came to my home and she gave me the video that we just saw I'm so grateful that I watched it before I came because I cried so much after I watched it the first time that if this would have been the first time of my watching this I could not have said a word to me this proves that 6 Mill is a lie it's not 6 million it's 60 million cuz every one of them could have been a father a mother a grandfather a grandmother a great-grandfather a great grandmother and you know when I saw the film the first thing that I thought of was this really puts our lives in perspective how in the world can we worry about Petty things that go on when you see a video like this so you didn't get the furniture so the delivery didn't come on time and so your child got a 95 instead of 100 or a 75 but you have a child and one day you're going to be a Bubby and a zadii and when we see this film this is really a time that we have to be grateful that we live in a great country and that we can have an event like this and that we can learn and we can study and we can grow and that's the purpose of getting together tonight it's not only to talk about our past but to talk about our future you know there's a very interesting kazal tells us that every generation has to have stars why is somebody called a star a star is somebody that you look up to just like you look up to stars at night and the question is who are the real stars of a generation tells us those that make the many righteous the like Rabbi sheld senior Rabbi sheld
