  • Calendar:   Speaking Engagements
  • Location:  Virtual
  • Description:  Join the Museum of Jewish Heritage to learn more about the Warsaw Ghetto and the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. Dr. Zachary Mazur, Senior Historian at the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews in Warsaw, will discuss the history of the Warsaw Ghetto and its continued impact worldwide.Part Three: “Legacies and Meanings of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising” The final session investigates the afterlife of the Uprising and how an act of desperate military resistance became a foundational pillar of Jewish memory. Over the decades, the story of the ghetto fighters has been interpreted—and sometimes instrumentalized—differently around the globe. The lecture will contrast the shifting narratives across three distinct landscapes: in Poland, where the uprising is integrated into a broader history of national martyrdom and resistance against totalitarianism; in Israel, where it was heavily woven into the ethos of the “sabra” fighter and the state’s establishment; and in the United States, where it often serves as a universal symbol of the triumph of the human spirit against tyranny.

Closing Night: 'The Ring' Virtual Film Screening | Austin Jewish Film Festival   View Event

  • Calendar:   Films
  • Location:  Virtual
  • Description:  Aug 28, 10:00 AM — Sep 6, 11:59 PM Central Standard Time (CST) A sentimental father-daughter dramedy rooted in Holocaust memory follows an observant Israeli son who travels to Budapest to reclaim a fabled wartime ring tied to his mother’s survival. Arnon, a driving instructor who’s gone adrift, persuades his estranged daughter Alma, whose coming out he never fully accepted, to join the search for the ring that had saved their family. As they contend with bureaucratic hurdles, antisemitism, unexpected generosity, and memories from ailing matriarch Violetta, the first steps toward reconnection emerge. Drawn from his family history and written and co-directed by lead actor, Adir Miller, this gently affecting journey blends humor and quiet heartache as a father’s quest becomes a chance to reweave a family story frayed by hurt and time. WHY THEY LIKE THIS FILM: One of the most engaging Holocaust-related films which has won awards at many festivals. Great character development, plot twists, terror, and humor. Inspired by true stories with the real-life heroine present at the end. For virtual tickets and to learn more, click HERE.

The History of Antisemitism: “The Secret War Against Hate” Book Talk | Museum of Jewish Heritage   View Event

  • Tuesday, September 8, 2026 at 6:00pm - 7:00pm
  • Calendar:   Speaking Engagements
  • Location:  Virtual
  • Description:  Americans today like to believe that the end of World War II brought a new era of tolerance in the United States. But antisemitism and racism went up-not down-after the war’s end. Violence broke out in cities across the country, and the number of organized hate groups more than doubled from 1940 to 1946. In this shocking account of a resurgence of White Supremacy in America, celebrated historian Steven J. Ross reveals how four key leaders-Emory Burke, J. B. Stoner, James Madole, and George Lincoln Rockwell-worked together to “finish the job Hitler had begun,” launching deadly attacks on Jews and African Americans and building a network of terrorists across the U.S. In response to this “war of hate,” three men-Arnold Forster of the Anti-­Defamation League, George Mintzer of the American Jewish Committee, and James Sheldon of the Non-­Sectarian Anti­-Nazi League-along with dozens of men and women, launched a multipronged effort: They infiltrated, monitored, and undermined these hate groups, putting their own safety on the line and scoring important victories that, today, have been all but forgotten. Tracing the extraordinary work of these unsung heroes, The Secret War Against Hate provides a groundbreaking reconsideration of the legacy of the “Good War,” and essential reading on how America today can beat hate once again and build a just and united nation. Steven J. Ross is Distinguished Professor of History and Director of the University of Southern California’s Casden Institute for the Study of the Jewish Role in American Life. His recent book, The Secret War Against Hate: American. Resistance to Antisemitism and White Supremacy, has been nominated for a Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award. He recently appeared with Rachel Maddow at a sold-out conversation at the 92nd Street Y in New York. His previous book, Hitler in Los Angeles: How Jews Foiled Nazi Plots Against Hollywood and America was named a Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in History for 2018 and was on the Los Angeles Times Bestseller List for 23 weeks. It was also made into a documentary for French television, Leon Lewis, the Man Who Defeated the Nazis in Hollywood (English title). Ross’s Op-Eds and columns have appeared in the Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, Politico and other major news outlets. Register HERE.

'The Tasters' Film Screening | Austin Jewish Film Festival   View Event

  • Tuesday, September 8, 2026 at 7:30pm - 9:00pm
  • Calendar:   Films
  • Location:  Austin, TX
  • Description:  Based on the bestselling book “At the Wolf’s Table” by Italian author Rosella Postorino, THE TASTERS follows a group of women who were recruited by the SS in 1943 to make sure that the food being served to Hitler was not poisoned. Forced to eat what might kill them, the tasters start to split into two factions: those loyal to Hitler and those who insist they aren’t Nazis, even as they risk their lives every day for the Führer. WHY THEY LIKE THIS FILM: In 2012, at the age of 95, shortly before her death, a woman named Margot Wölk revealed that she had been one of the young German women forced to taste Hitler’s meals. No one had ever known about the existence of the food tasters. Margot Wölk was the only one among them to survive the end of the war. Her story inspired both the novel and the film. Although the Jewish content isn’t immediately obvious, it becomes revealed towards the end of the movie. Evans Performance Center at Shalom Austin Learn more and purchase tickets HERE.

  • Wednesday, September 9, 2026 at 3:00pm - 4:00pm
  • Calendar:   Workshops
  • Location:  Virtual
  • Description:  During the Holocaust, Christians across Europe made choices that shaped the fate of millions. Some were active and ardent Nazis and perpetrators. Others stood by in silence. A courageous few risked their lives to help those in danger. What drove these decisions? And how do we teach students to examine this complex moral terrain? Join Director of Holocaust Content & Pedagogy Jesse Tannetta to explore classroom-ready resources and effective strategies to help students examine how faith guided ordinary Christians and influential leaders, including the Pope, to act, and not act, in a myriad of ways, and how those roles were not always fixed but could shift based on circumstances, choices and agency.
