- Hear the personal story of a Warsaw Ghetto Survivor from an assimilated Jewish family, Irena Agata Bołdok. This episode explores the childhood experiences of the Warsaw Ghetto, and hiding in the so-called “Aryan side,” as well as the impact of that experience on the construction of identity and subjectivity in the Irena’s life later on. Here, the experience of the ghetto is an "initiation into Jewishness," the unwanted and shameful identity. In circumstances of extreme experience of antisemitism and exclusion. Her story is an account of discovering one's own identity, shaped by the "collective shadow of others." It was also about finding one's own worth and place in the world, for which the role of "confidants" is crucial. Finally of the loved ones with whom one can be oneself.
