Sobrevivió al Holocausto, tiene casi 100 años e hizo aliá: la increíble historia de Charlotte Roth

La sobreviviente del Holocausto Charlotte Roth, de 96 años, completó formalmente su aliá dentro de Israel el 18 de febrero, marcando un hito en una vida definida por la resiliencia, la fe y el amor por su familia y el pueblo judío, según un comunicado de prensa de Nefesh B’Nefesh.

Con la ayuda de Nefesh B’Nefesh y la Autoridad de Población e Inmigración, en cooperación con el Ministerio de Aliá e Integración, la Agencia Judía para Israel, Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael y el Fondo Nacional Judío-EE.UU., Roth se mudó de Cleveland para estar más cerca de muchos de sus descendientes que ahora consideran a Israel su hogar.

“Es un momento verdaderamente maravilloso en mi vida poder llamarme israelí, ciudadano de nuestro estado judío”, dijo Roth en el comunicado. “Caminar por estas calles con cinco generaciones de mi familia me llena el corazón de profunda alegría y fortaleza, especialmente cuando veo soldados israelíes y siento seguridad y orgullo donde antes había miedo”.

Rodeada de cinco generaciones de sus descendientes, la aliá de Roth representa el cumplimiento de un sueño que comenzó después del capítulo más oscuro de Europa y culmina hoy en el corazón de la patria judía.

“La vida de Charlotte es un testimonio de la extraordinaria resiliencia del espíritu judío”, declaró el rabino Yehoshua Fass, cofundador y director ejecutivo de Nefesh B’Nefesh, en el comunicado. “De una oscuridad inimaginable emergió una luz que ha brillado durante más de cinco generaciones. Su aliá de hoy, rodeada de su familia en la patria judía, es profundamente conmovedora y representa la valentía, la renovación y el triunfo perdurable de nuestra nación. Nos sentimos profundamente privilegiados de compartir este momento extraordinario”.

Nacida en Checoslovaquia en el seno de una familia numerosa y unida, Roth recordó su infancia como alegre y llena de aventuras, según el comunicado. Criada en un hogar profundamente arraigado en el amor y la unidad familiar, solía reflexionar que «la familia lo era todo». Ese valor fundamental se ha mantenido constante a lo largo de su vida.

En 1944, con tan solo 14 años, el mundo de Roth se hizo añicos. Durante la Pascua judía, ante el rápido deterioro de las condiciones de vida de los judíos, su familia se vio obligada a vivir en un gueto. Semanas después, días antes de Shavuot, fueron deportados a Auschwitz en un vagón de ganado en condiciones terribles. Al llegar, el segundo día de Shavuot, Roth fue separada de su madre y sus hermanos durante el proceso de selección. Fue la última vez que los vio.

Como sabía coser, Charlotte Roth fue seleccionada para realizar trabajos forzados, una habilidad que probablemente le salvó la vida. Sobrevivió a Auschwitz, a una marcha de la muerte y al encarcelamiento en otro campo hasta su liberación. Después de la guerra, regresó a su pueblo natal solo para descubrir que ningún miembro de su familia inmediata había sobrevivido. Aún más devastadora fue la noticia de su padre, quien apenas unos días antes creía que toda su familia había perecido. Incapaz de soportar más pérdidas, lamentablemente se quitó la vida.

De lo que quedaba de su vida anterior, Charlotte Roth solo conservó una posesión: un anillo grabado con las iniciales «IS», por Ilanka Shvartz, su nombre de nacimiento antes de la guerra. Sigue usándolo hasta el día de hoy.

En los años siguientes, Roth rehízo su vida desde cero. Siendo adolescente, en un campamento para personas desplazadas, conoció a su futuro esposo. Se casaron allí y dieron la bienvenida a su primer hijo antes de emigrar a Estados Unidos, donde las restrictivas políticas migratorias la obligaron a adoptar un nuevo pasaporte, un nuevo nombre y, en muchos sentidos, una nueva identidad.

Se establecieron en Cleveland y reconstruyeron lo que había sido destruido. Juntos, criaron a cuatro hijos. Hoy, Roth es la matriarca de nueve nietos, 26 bisnietos y 11 tataranietos, cinco generaciones que sobresalen como testimonio vivo de supervivencia y continuidad.

Su ceremonia de aliá estuvo marcada por la presencia de sus hijos, nietos, bisnietos y tataranietos. La joven que llegó a Auschwitz sola y huérfana ha vivido para ver a su familia prosperar en un estado judío soberano.
