Club Meeting

There remains a common belief that Jewish victims of Nazi genocide did nothing to resist. This presentation seeks  to dispel this myth by highlighting the myriad ways  some Jews resisted dehumanization and death in  ghettos, camps, and in hiding. Resistance was  physical, mental, and spiritual in nature, reflecting  the strength of individuals, families, and organized  resistance groups and this story provides  inspiration for addressing today's rising  Jew-hatred.  Giovanna Wiseman, Director of Programs and  Community Outreach at the Sandra Bornstein  Holocaust Education Center, will also talk about  the work her center is doing to combat today's  antisemitism through Holocaust education. This is  the club's annual Holocaust Remembrance Day (Yom HaShoah) presentation.
