POLL: The 'dancing Auschwitz' video -- hilarious or offensive?



An artist from Australia is receiving a barrage of criticism for a YouTube video that shows her Holocaust- survivor father and other members of her family dancing on the grounds of Auschwitz to the tune of Gloria Gaynor's disco-era hit "I Will Survive."

That's according to various reports this week that state that the video has been causing an uproar on Twitter, Facebook and other sites. You can judge it for yourself by watching the clip above. Much of the video (though not all of it) takes place on various locations of Auschwitz, the former Nazi death camp where untold numbers perished during World War II.

In certain scenes, the dancers wear T-shirts that read "Survivor" across the chest. In other scenes, they dance under the infamous "Work Will Set You Free" sign.

According to the reports, the person behind the clip is named Jane Korman, an artist from Melbourne, Australia. Her father, Adolek Kohn, is an Auschwitz survivor who is now in his late 80's.

We'd like to know what you think of the "dancing Auschwitz" video. Is it truly appalling, or are people making a big deal about nothing? Take the poll and feel free to leave your comments as well.

France 2008 Photo DVD

This youtube video should go live later today.




Slideshow presentation of my visit to Wissembourg, Lauterbourg & Colmar, France in 2008. If you'd like to order a DVD version of this presentation please send me a message with your mailing address and contact information. A small fee will be charged for my service and mailing charge. I hope to charge between ten to twenty dollars for the DVD version.

I'm currently seeking feedback on the quality and presentation of this slideshow and all comments are welcomed. I hope to produce more slideshows like the France DVD of Krakow & Auschwitz, Poland and Normandy, France. I also have hundreds of photos taken in Kitzbuhel, Austria that are simply beautiful.

The DVD includes hundreds of photos and the runtime is approximately 20 minutes in length.

The slideshow was produced by using the Microsoft Movie Maker and set to music.
