Ruth Michel was born as Ruth Rosenstock in Königsberg in 1928. In 1941 she experienced the invasion of the Wehrmacht in the then Polish Mikuliczyn. After her Jewish father was forced to hide, she took care of the family. Ruth escaped the mass shooting in the woods where her father was murdered. Disguised as a Polish forced laborer, she fled with her Christian mother back to Königsberg, where she witnessed the end of the war.

Der Marsch des Lebens ist eine Initiative von Jobst und Charlotte Bittner und den evangelisch-freikirchlichen TOS Diensten aus Tübingen in Deutschland. Gemeinsam mit Nachkommen deutscher Wehrmachts-, Polizei- und SS-Angehöriger veranstalten sie Gedenk- und Versöhnungsmärsche an Orten des Holocaust in Europa und weltweit.
Seit dem Beginn der Bewegung im Jahr 2007 haben bisher Märsche in mehr als 20 Nationen und hunderten Städten und Ortschaften stattgefunden – in Zusammenarbeit mit Christen der unterschiedlichsten Kirchen und Denominationen sowie mit vielen jüdischen Gemeinden.
Der Marsch des Lebens steht für:
Der Marsch des Lebens hat in jedem Land einen eigenen Namen und eine eigene Identität – „March of Remembrance“ in den USA, „Marcha de La Vida” in Lateinamerika oder „Marsz Życia” in Polen -, die Botschaft bleibt immer dieselbe. Es war das gleichgültige Schweigen der Mehrheit, das den Holocaust überhaupt ermöglicht hat. Eine Gleichgültigkeit, die auch heute den Weg für Antisemitismus und Fremdenhass bahnt. Der Marsch des Lebens verbindet die persönliche Aufarbeitung der Geschichte mit einer öffentlichen Stimme gegen heutigen Antisemitismus in Freundschaft mit Israel.
