“Although the Jewish community in Göttingen still existed on paper, in reality it no longer existed before its reactivation in 1994. In Göttingen we only knew three people who professed Judaism, the Lord Mayor Artur Levi and Emil Adler, a German scholar, and his wife Eugenia, who had come from Warsaw in 1968. As far as we knew, when we were in Göttingen in the spring, we kept the only Seder there. We also invited non-Jewish guests, as we did in Buffalo. In 1979 the local newspaper found out about our seder and sent a reporter and a photographer.
I often went to the events of the Society for Christian-Jewish Cooperation. In the summer of 1972 we went with Hannah Vogt, the chairman of the society, to a one-week stay in the countryside near Cologne, where a group of Jewish youths from the East End of London who had never had contact with Germans came with us German youth who had never met Jews.”
