Hi,
My name is Susanne Sznajderman-Rytz and I am happy to read this articel 15 years after I managed to convince the Swedish Prime Minister to include and announce Yiddish a national minority language. As a child born by survivors who arrived to Sweden, growing up in a Yiddish speaking environment, I challenged the Swedish guvernement. I am a linguist by profession and have by now spent more than 25 years showing the strength and beauty of Yiddish culture, tradition and language. Surprisingly the opponents were "modern" Jews, trying to hide this part of our common heritage.
