Details

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.

Join Echoes & Reflections to hear an amazing basketball story that takes us from Auschwitz to an Olympic gold medal to the NBA. This is the type of story that can teach students about resilience and the importance of never giving up, while they simultaneously learn about Nazi terror and Holocaust history. Echoes & Reflections will host Dan Grunfeld, the author of a new book, By the Grace of the Game, to hear this extraordinary three-generational story.
