 A paperclips.JPGspecial screening of Whitwell Middle School’s Holocaust project featured in the documentary "PAPER CLIPS" will be shown Tuesday Dec 18, 2007 6:15 pm at Clifton Park-Halfmoon Library

PAPER CLIPS is the moving and inspiring documentary film that captures how these students responded to lessons about the Holocaust-with a promise to honor every lost soul by collecting one paper clip for each individual exterminated by the Nazis. Despite the fact that they had previously been unaware of and unfamiliar with the Holocaust, their dedication was absolute. Their plan was simplebut profound. The amazing result, a memorial railcar filled with 11 million paper clips (representing 6 million Jews and 5 million gypsies, homosexuals and other victims of the Holocaust) which stands permanently in their schoolyard, is an unforgettable lesson of how a committed group of children and educators can change the world one classroom at a time. Committed to collecting one paper clip in honor those who died in the Holocaust, these young people are awakened to the world around them, and to their own potential for understanding, empathy, and changing the world for the better.
