[Painting of Zivia Lubetkin - Efrat Hasson de Botton]
Leader and fighter, an important figure in the organization of the Warsaw ghetto uprising and in the establishment of Kibbutz Lohamei Haghetaot
In 1943, an article was published in the press that saddened the Jewish community, about Lubetkin’s death in the Warsaw ghetto. The poet Natan Alterman wrote the song "Hebrew Girl" in her memory. Shortly afterwards a sign of life was received from her which aroused great excitement.
At the end of the war she chose to stay in Europe to gather the rest of the refugees.
She married Yitzhak (Antek) Zuckerman, and they had two children: Shimon and Yael. Their granddaughter, Roni, is the first woman to complete an Air Force pilot course in combat.
Since immigrating to Israel in 1946, she has held public positions in the kibbutz, the Jewish Agency and the preservation of Holocaust remembrance.
The name and work of "The Warrior Zivia", as Yitzhak Katzenelson called it in the lament "On the Jewish People Who Were Killed", are widely commemorated in the book "Tears of Fire" by Deborah Omer and in many streets and institutions, including Ma’aleh Tzvia, Kiryat Yam Absorption Center and Museum Ghetto Fighters’ House.
Our streets have a special charm.
They reflect history and a culture of values and heritage.
As part of the week "in full exclusion" we will ascend to the miracle of inspiring women who have gained recognition and appreciation by naming a street after their name.
Today, not many streets in the city are named after women, and the municipality is working to rectify the situation: last year, the municipality commemorated more than ten women - artists, creators, social activists, women and spirit, and read about streets and public institutions across the city.
