Americans and the Holocaust Exhibit
From now through Monday October 24th the Olson Library is hosting Americans and the Holocaust, a traveling exhibition that examines Americans’ responses to Nazism, war and genocide in Europe during the 1930s and 1940s. What did Americans know, and what more could have been done? The exhibition--from the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. in conjunction with the American Library Association -- also presents stories of individual Americans, some of whom took actions that went against the grain at the time, daring to rescue Jews from Europe.
Our first event is this Thursday at 7pm in HRDN 224. Dr. Robbie Goodrich will speak on Genocidalism. See link for description and additional events, both here at at the Peter White Public Library.
