A 96-year-old Auschwitz survivor, who had been invited to share his harrowing experiences with Democratic lawmakers, was forced to conceal his Star of David necklace in order to avoid drawing unwanted attention. The elderly man, who witnessed unimaginable atrocities during World War II, had been asked to provide a historical context on the rise of antisemitism to the Democratic Party officials. However, his presence sparked a security concern, leaving him to hide the symbol of his faith, a stark reminder of the long-standing prejudice he has endured.
