Date of origin: <\/strong>April 28, 1939<\/p>\n

Origin of the object: <\/strong>This is a speech that was written and presented by G\u00e1l Gy\u00f6rgy Andr\u00e1s (George Andrew Gal) in Budapest, Hungary in 1939. We are unsure of where the speech was presented.<\/p>\n

Description: <\/strong>G\u00e1l Gy\u00f6rgy Andr\u00e1s, or George Andrew Gal, was born on June 20th1921, in Budapest, Hungary. On April 28th1939, when George was 17 years old, he wrote and presented this speech in Budapest. It reflects the mood amongst Jewish youth shortly before Nazi Germany\u2019s troops occupied Hungary. Excerpts from the speech:<\/p>\n

\u201cTowards what we are starting now, the future, near and far, places in front of us insurmountable and immeasurable tasks. The soulless prophet shouts towards us with an empty heart and a full throat: \u201cJewish youth \u2013 do you want to live?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy brothers in departure, the road is in front of us, the true and only one. It is full of steep hills and traps, but we go forward. Freedom is singing in our hearts and truth is pounding in our brain. In our hands the bible is our shield, and in our soul lives God.\u201d<\/p>\n

Five years later, on July 2nd1944, when George was 23 years old, he was killed in a forced labour camp in Hungary. Bombs exploded around him, and Jewish labourers were not permitted to take shelter in the bunker.<\/p>\n

On Oct 20th1944, George\u2019s father (Alad\u00e1r G\u00e1l) was taken away by the Nazis, and he never returned. George\u2019s mother and sister survived the Holocaust. <\/p>\n

Voyage to Ottawa:<\/strong>George Gal\u2019s sister (Susan G\u00e1l\/Haydu, arrived in Toronto, Canada as a refugee in April 1957 with her husband (Zoltan Haydu) and daughter (Agnes Haydu\/Bleiwas). The next year, in 1958, George and Susan\u2019s mother, Helen G\u00e1l joined Susan and family in Toronto and brought the speech. Susan\u2019s granddaughter (Sarah Bleiwas) brought the speech from Toronto to Ottawa.<\/p>\n
