In Episode 67 of Ordinary Heroes, Dr. Bernie Furshpan welcomes two outstanding students from W.T. Clarke High School—Tina Marie Otero and Connie Dong—fresh off their first‑place win at Long Island History Day. Together, they discuss how a viewing of The Boy in the Striped Pajamas sparked their deep dive into the Nuremberg Trials, from witnessing the liberation of the camps to coining the term “genocide.” They share the “aha” moments that drove their National History Day project—examining rights, responsibilities and the legacy of holding perpetrators accountable—and explain why survivor testimonies remain vital to preventing future atrocities. Tune in to hear how these young historians are keeping Holocaust memory alive and inspiring a more just, tolerant world.
