Kristallnacht: A Teachable Moment

Kristallnacht is often viewed as a turning point. On the night of November 9, 1938, the persecution of the Jews became dramatically visible and undeniable. Marking the anniversary of Kristallnacht presents a unique teachable moment: what happens when people are deprived of basic rights and others stand by without taking action? How does escalation occur? Why is it so important to fight hatred? Your classroom is invited to join Sheryl Ochayon of Yad Vashem, who will explore these issues in this webinar.
