The article highlights the lack of a dedicated museum or memorial to commemorate the struggle of Jews in Soviet Russia and the global movement to free Soviet Jewry. Despite the monumental impact of this struggle, which led to the immigration of over a million Jews to Israel and contributed significantly to the country's development, efforts to preserve and educate about this history have been minimal. The author recounts the personal and collective awakening of Jewish identity spurred by the movement and laments the passing of its key heroes without adequate recognition. Recent initiatives, such as the creation of a forest in memory of the Prisoners of Zion, aim to honor their legacy, but the dream of a comprehensive heritage center remains unfulfilled.
