TOVA On Mars

The Official Ramblings: Brought to you by the brain or heart of Storyteller, Songwriter and Artist, Tova Litvin, though not usually both…

First time seeing some of our work on the big screen. 😍😭 Thank you to @Disney for everything, especially for teaching me that every movie premiere should have a Werewolf Transformation Bar and provide Zombie yogurt. Zombies 2 is out on Valentine’s Day! (Obviously.) 🤷🏻‍♀️ • • • • #Zombies2 #NewMusic #Bam
This is my grandfather. • When he was a child, he and his entire family were sent to the Auschwitz death camp. He’s the only one who survived. • I don’t know the names or ages of my great-grandparents, or my grandfather's brothers and sisters, because after the Holocaust, he was unable to speak about that part of his life - it was too painful. • What I do know is that the only reason I’m alive today and writing this is because after watching the Nazis murder his entire family, my grandfather was able to escape through a hole in one of the fences before he too would have been exterminated. He made his way into a nearby forest where he was eventually picked up by the Allies. Soon after, he made his way to Israel. He got married, my mother was born, and the rest, as they say, is history. • As a kid, I’d look at pictures of those who were killed in Auschwitz, and wonder which of those faces were "mine." (And it’s undeniable that I look like many of them.) • It’s nothing short of a miracle that the same blood that stopped running in their veins is now alive in mine, all these years later, and on the other side of the world. • I eventually came to understand that ALL of those faces are mine. ALL of them are my family, and if I was born in that place and time, I would be standing there beside them on a death march too. • I cannot stress this enough - if I was born 75 years ago, the people you see in photos from the Holocaust- the ones who are starving and naked, the ones who look like skeletons standing in lines, waiting to be killed in OVENS - that would have been me. • It’s estimated that close to 2 million people were "immediately exterminated” upon arriving to Auschwitz. Countless others died of starvation, torture, and in other unspeakable ways. • There are only 144 documented escapes from the death camp. My grandfather was one of them. • And while Never Forget is a catchy slogan, it is also why I post this every year, and the very least we can do to honor those who were robbed of the basic right to exist during such a dark time for humanity. • • #HolocaustRemembranceDay #NeverForget #Auschwitz
94 is the new 21. 😍 • • • • #Partyrock #StarryEyes #CelebrateGoodTimes #COMEON
