Details

Our 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.

How have Europeans chosen to remember the Holocaust, and how have Holocaust memorials been weaponized by those who may wish to assert a different political or social narrative? Can memorials actually become places of erasure that can lead dangerously to forgetting or even denying the truth? Join Dr. Tyler J. Goldberger to explore the questions and issues behind remembrance of this genocide.

This interactive webinar will focus on the importance of memorialization and the dangers of weaponization. It will empower educators to teach about the role and interpretation of memorials in remembering the past and connects to the Justice, Life, and Memory after the Holocaust unit on the Echoes & Reflections website.
