Damia Londesman - A Memoir of the Holocaust
Damia Boucher wanted to come to terms with his past so that he and his partner could have a solid foundation before having their own children. He found out about a collective called La Fortunes du Nons, the strength of the name. The collective sought to change French law so that the descendants of Jewish people could reclaim their family names. It took four years for Damia to get an answer but one day he received a call from his lawyer saying it had been approved by the government. At first, it felt unreal. I was now officially Damia Londesman.
