From 1940 to 1943 in the Warsaw ghetto there was an underground group "Oinag Shabes". Methodical extermination of the Jews was opposed by their work of historians and archivists, setting the goal of collecting and preserving and evidence of a huge, different Jewish culture of Eastern Europe, and evidence of its destruction. The stories of eyewitnesses and photographs, chronicles and diaries, prose and poems, drawings, sermons and jokes, programs of creative evenings and underground currency courses, tram tickets and wrappers from sweets, restaurant menu and grocery cards collected in three years were carefully packed and hidden. In three caches. After the war, only two of them were discovered. Work on the decoding of a unique archive lasted several decades, the publication of 36 volumes ended in 2018.
The collection, compiled by Professor David G. Roskis, included works and documents telling about the Holocaust the voices of his first researchers - the victims themselves - from the first person, in real time, contrary to time and all times.
