Tag #151050 - Interview #78412 (Frieda Portnaya)

After finishing school Misha decided to enter the technical school at the radio plant. They rejected his documents and explained to him that they couldn’t admit Jews to a technical school related to the radio electronic industry. This happened in 1986 at the beginning of Perestroika. My son-in-law wrote a letter about it and sent it to the authorities in Moscow. A few weeks later we received a letter from the school asking Misha to re-submit his documents. But my grandson refused to enter that school.
