Lest WE Forget Historical
LEST WE FORGET is a 30-minute video program hosted by Lillian Caudwell on the Passionate World Talk Radio Network. The show delves into historical issues that, though transpired in the past, are often overlooked by the present generation. It aims to foster an understanding of pivotal events in our country's history. In our inaugural episode, we explored The United States and the Holocaust, featuring a discussion with three hosts. The focus was on unraveling the hows and whys behind the Holocaust, providing an opportunity to delve into the challenges faced by the Jewish Community then and now. Initially structured with three hosts covering contemporary events, religious perspectives, and historical insights, the podcast has seen two hosts depart due to time constraints. It's important to note that there's no singular right or wrong opinion; everyone has the freedom to express their sentiments about past events and the imperative to prevent them from fading into obscurity. Concluding each episode, Lillian offers a Call to Action or an Action Plan for listeners eager to make a meaningful impact and engage on a broader scale. To participate, simply text your comments, name, and email to 484-364-1032. This serves as an avenue to share your thoughts and potentially connect with one of our hosts for a one-on-one conversation.
