Connecting Stories Across Genocides

Echoes & Reflections' webinars are designed to increase participants’ knowledge of Holocaust history, explore and access classroom-ready content, and support instructional practice to promote student learning and understanding of this complex history and its lasting effect on the world.

This webinar will examine USC Shoah Foundation's iWitness platform through the lens of connecting stories across genocides. Participants will learn about the multi-part Echoes & Reflections Teaching About Genocide resource intended to help teachers support students’ understanding of genocide in the context of their Holocaust education. It includes a glossary of essential terms, an outline of Gregory Stanton’s “10 Stages of Genocide”, two to three testimony clips from iWitness that illustrate each stage as it occurred in different genocides, resources for activism and further study of genocide, and case studies of genocide.
