Recounting the Holocaust by podcast
Little Canada, Minn. — History is relayed in many forms: first-person stories, books, film, TV, radio. Until now, the iPod has not been much of a gateway to history.
That’s changing, in part because of a Holocaust survivor in Little Canada, a criminal justice professor at St. Cloud State University, and a small group of broadcasters with the vision to use podcasts to bridge generations.
Henry Oertelt, 86, is one of the first — if not the first — Holocaust survivor to record his account in a series of podcasts by KVSC, the St. Cloud State University radio station.
