Description:
Anne Frank, the teenage diarist who documented her experience whilst in hiding from the Nazis, is probably the most well-known victim of the Holocaust. The question of how her family's hiding place was discovered has been a mystery for almost 80 years. A recent book purporting to have solved this question has created much controversy. Daniel Rozenga, Head of the Dutch Desk at Yad Vashem, will help to separate fact from fiction.

Description:
Spring Lecture Series: "The Relevance and Representation of Wannsee: Frank Pierson’s Conspiracy (2001)"
Join the Ackerman Center for Holocaust Studies at the University of Texas at Dallas for the first of their annual
Spring Lecture Series. Dr. Emily-Rose Baker will present, "The Relevance
and Representation of Wannsee: Frank Pierson’s Conspiracy (2001)"
Held within the walls of a
remote lakeside villa in Berlin on 20 January 1942, the Wannsee
Conference gathered 15 high-ranking Nazi officials who coordinated the
implementation of the "Final Solution" to the so-called ‘Jewish
question’ in occupied Europe. Under the chairmanship of SS-Obergruppenführer Reinhard
Heydrich, the decisions made at the conference set in motion the
extermination of 6 million European Jews during the remaining Holocaust
years. Attempts to understand what Mark Roseman has called the
‘business-like’ proceedings of the conference, in which well-educated
Nazis calmly discussed the fates of their victims over lunch, have
culminated in several on-screen representations of the event. This
lecture discusses perhaps one of the better-known of these filmic
depictions – American director Frank Pierson’s film Conspiracy,
produced by HBO in 2001. Focusing on the romanticized depiction of the
upper echelon of the Nazi hierarchy and their euphemistic language as
well as questions of ethics and historical precision, it discusses the
relevance of Wannsee itself and the significance of the film in building
a picture of the conference – from which no full minutes remain – 80
years on.
Dr. Emily-Rose Baker is Visiting Assistant Professor of Film at the
University of Texas at Dallas, as part of the Ackerman Center for
Holocaust Studies. Emily-Rose completed her PhD in English Literature
from the University of Sheffield in May 2021, where she specialized in
post-communist memory cultures of the Holocaust in Central and Eastern
Europe. Her teaching focuses on representations of genocide in art,
film, and literature, and her research interests include visual
Holocaust cultures; post-communist memory politics; Jewish-Slavic
relations; decolonization; and psychoanalysis.

Description:
The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum (USHMM) experts will discuss the history of Ukraine and its people, including Holocaust survivors who are under threat once again.
The story of their nation is forever linked to the 1.5 million Jews who were killed in the region during the Holocaust and millions of other Ukrainian civilians who died in the war. Russian President Vladimir Putin has twisted that history to justify an invasion, falsely claiming to be waging war against Nazism and genocide.
After the live broadcast, the recording will be available to watch on demand on the USHMM’s Facebook and YouTube pages.
