USHMM | Americans and the Holocaust Traveling Exhibition   View Event

  • Saturday, April 11, 2026 (all day)
  • Calendar:   Exhibits
  • Location:  Baylor University Libraries One Bear Place #97148 Waco, TX 76798-7148
  • 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?” To learn more, click here. 

DHHRM | Genocide, Nazi Medicine, and Postwar Justice   View Event

  • Wednesday, May 6, 2026 at 7:00pm - 8:00pm
  • Calendar:   Speaking Engagements
  • Location:  Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum 300 N. Houston Street Dallas, TX 75202
  • Description:  Hear from Michael Emmett, M.D., as he examines the disturbing role physicians played in the Holocaust, and the complex legacy that followed. How did Nazi doctors, individuals previously sworn to heal, become central figures in eugenics, inhumane experimentation, and genocide? Emmett will trace the arc from these atrocities to the public trials at Nuremberg, in which several leading medical figures were held accountable for crimes against humanity. He will also confront a lesser-known dimension of the postwar reckoning, how U.S. medical experiments on vulnerable populations influenced the trials and shaped the international conversation on medical ethics.
