CNN —Steven Spielberg had words of caution and hope on Monday while accepting an honor from the University of Southern California. Celina Biniaz, 92, one of the last living Holocaust survivors from Oskar Schindler’s List, was also honored at the event. In my grandparents’ home Cincinnati, Ohio where I lived until I was three, my grandmother, Jenny, taught English to Hungarian Holocaust survivors. In listening to them, the echoes of history are unmistakable in our current climate. These 56,000 testimonies that we have recorded are a foundation upon which bridges can be built, and we here at the USC Shoah Foundation are building those bridges.

Edith Sheffer’s young son always disliked labels such as Asperger’s syndrome. By devising a diagnosis that emphasized the children’s intellectual abilities, the psychiatrist said, Dr. Asperger tried to spare them from the Nazi campaign to “euthanize” youths with cognitive disabilities. Dr. Sheffer, sitting next to her 12-year-old son, knew this wasn’t entirely true. And, Dr. Sheffer learned with horror, he had personally condemned dozens of children to the killing centers. By the time her book was published, Asperger’s syndrome was no longer listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.
