Description:
After a successful tour of 50 libraries from 2021 to 2023, the Museum is continuing to partner with the American Library Association’s Public Programs Office to extend the Americans and the Holocaust traveling exhibition to an additional 50 libraries across the United States from 2024 to 2026.
This 1,100-square-foot traveling exhibition is based on the exhibition that opened in April 2018 at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC. The Americans and the Holocaust traveling exhibition addresses important themes in American history, including Americans’ responses to refugees, war and genocide in the 1930s and ‘40s. This exhibition will challenge the commonly held assumptions that Americans knew little and did nothing about the Nazi persecution and murder of Jews as the Holocaust unfolded.
Drawing on a remarkable collection of primary sources from the 1930s and ‘40s, the exhibition focuses on the stories of individuals and groups of Americans who took action in response to Nazism. It will challenge visitors to consider the responsibilities and obstacles faced by individuals—from President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to ordinary Americans—who made difficult choices, sought to effect change, and, in a few cases, took significant risks to help victims of Nazism even as rescue never became a government priority. The exhibit hopes to challenge people to not only ask “what would I have done?” but also, “what will I do?”

Description:
In recognition of Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day), Deborah Roth-Howe along with Congregation Havurah Shalom of Sun City, Texas and in partnership with the Georgetown Public Library have created a thought-provoking and inspiring program titled “A Reason to Remember”: Roth, Germany 1933-1942". This program will take place at The Georgetown Public Library’s Hewlett Room, located at 402 West 8th Street in Georgetown, Texas on Sunday, April 12th 2025 from 2-4pm. The event is FREE and all are welcome.
Deborah Roth-Howe, a daughter of one of the survivors of the community, will share a personal and detailed account of a rural Jewish community before, under and after Nazi Rule. She will present the powerful story at the heart of the acclaimed Holocaust exhibit “A Reason to Remember,” created by the University of Massachusetts Amherst’s Institute for Holocaust, Genocide, and Memory Studies. Her talk will highlight the history of the five Jewish families who lived in the village of Roth Germany between 1933 and 1942, tracing their daily lives, rising persecution, and eventual fate under Nazi rule. Through this village-level lens, Roth-Howe brings forward a deeper understanding of how the Holocaust unfolded for ordinary families whose lives were forever changed.
Through this intimate story, attendees will learn about the everyday joys, challenges, and ultimately the devastation experienced by these families as Nazi persecution tightened around them. The program underscores the importance of preserving personal histories and recognizing the individual lives behind historical events.
This Yom HaShoah event invites the community to reflect, remember, and bear witness. Roth-Howe’s presentation offers not only historical insight but also a moving intergenerational perspective grounded in her own family’s experience as Holocaust refugees.

Description:
Join Holocaust Museum Houston for a night with Dr. Pamela Toler, Author of The Dragon from Chicago: The Untold Story of an American Reporter in Nazi Germany.
“Today we face an alarming upsurge in the spread of misinformation and attempts by powerful figures to discredit facts so they can seize control of our political and cultural narratives. These are threats American journalist Sigrid Schultz knew all too well. The Chicago Tribune’s Berlin bureau chief and primary foreign correspondent for Central Europe from 1925 to January 1941, Schultz witnessed Hitler’s rise to power and was one of the first reporters—male or female—to warn American readers of the growing dangers of Nazism. She was one of the last to leave Berlin before it was too late.
In The Dragon From Chicago, historian Pamela Toler tells the story of Schultz’s years spent courageously reporting the news from Berlin, from the revolts of 1919 through the Nazi rise to power and Allied air raids over Berlin in 1941. At a time when women reporters rarely wrote front-page stories, Schultz regularly reported the truth about Nazi Germany in the face of censorship and the threat of expulsion, internment, or death.
The Nazis called Schultz “that dragon from Chicago.” One of her fellow correspondents called her “Adolph Hitler’s greatest enemy.” Schultz herself claimed to be “just a reporter.” Her story is a powerful account of one woman standing up for truth in an era marked by the spread of disinformation and propaganda spawned by hate.”
Books will be available for purchase by credit card.

Description:
This exhibit is suitable for grade levels 5–12 and adults.
Congregation Havurah Shalom is now scheduling free docent-led youth group tours, designed to help students engage with the material in an age-appropriate, meaningful, and thoughtful way. Educators, youth leaders, and homeschool groups are encouraged to reach out early to reserve their preferred dates.
The Georgetown Public Library in partnership with Congregation Havurah Shalom of Georgetown, TX will host the traveling exhibition “A Reason to Remember: Roth, Germany 1933–1942” from April 13 through May 21, 2026. This powerful exhibit from the Institute for Holocaust, Genocide, and Memory Studies at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst is a deeply moving one that brings the Holocaust into sharp, personal focus through the true stories of five Jewish families who lived in the small German village of Roth—and whose lives were irrevocably changed by the rise of Nazism.
Using photographs, documents, artifacts, and eyewitness testimonies, the exhibition presents an intimate look at daily life in Roth and the step-by-step progression of restrictions, persecution, and deportation that ultimately led to the destruction of the community. The exhibit highlights the choices made by victims, perpetrators, resisters, collaborators, and bystanders—encouraging visitors to reflect on the consequences of prejudice and the importance of moral courage.
The final panels place Roth’s story within the broader historical context of the Holocaust and the experiences of other groups targeted by the Nazi regime.
