Event Details
Dr. Jan Grabowski, Distinguished University Professor at the University of Ottawa and leading historian of the Holocaust in Poland and Polish–Jewish relations under German occupation, will present this year's Einspruch Lectures on the Holocaust. Lecture Abstract: The Holocaust is too often remembered as a German crime that swept across a passive continent. This lecture challenges that comforting narrative. Drawing on the historical record, it argues that the destruction of the European Jews was not merely tolerated but actively enabled — and in many cases enthusiastically embraced — by administrations, institutions, and ordinary citizens across occupied and unoccupied Europe alike. From collaborationist bureaucracies to local populations who denounced, plundered, and killed on their own initiative, the machinery of destruction depended on a continent-wide participation that far exceeds what German capacity alone could have achieved. The lecture then turns to the present, tracing a direct line between this uncomfortable history and today's escalating attacks on Holocaust memory and commemoration. It argues that much of this backlash is not simply ignorance or the passage of time, but something more pointed: a refusal to acknowledge one’s own national, or group, complicity. Where societies have never fully reckoned with their own roles — as perpetrators, collaborators, or beneficiaries — the memory of the Holocaust remains an unabsorbed wound, one that resurfaces as resentment, denial, and active efforts to rewrite or diminish the past. To understand why the fight over Holocaust memory is intensifying now, we must understand it as unfinished business — a reckoning many nations have deferred but not escaped.
Sunday's lecture will be followed by a public reception. Dr. Grabowski will present a second lecture the following day in a lunch-and-learn format. To learn more, visit the Einspruch Lectures on the Holocaust page.Click here to register online; registration is required.

Dr. Jan Grabowski, Distinguished University Professor at the University of Ottawa and leading historian of the Holocaust in Poland and Polish–Jewish relations under German occupation, will present this year's Einspruch Lectures on the Holocaust. Lecture Abstract: Between 1942 and 1943, the ghettos of Eastern Europe were destroyed in a wave of "liquidation actions" — operations that followed a chillingly consistent pattern from town to town, as if executed from a single script. This lecture examines that pattern: how it was organized, how it repeated itself across hundreds of communities, and what it reveals about the machinery behind it. Close to 20% of all Jews murdered at the time were killed not in the death camps, but in situ — murdered inside or in the proximity of the ghettos in which they lived. The scale of local participation in these killings remains, to this day, largely unknown. And crucially, this violence was not hidden- it happened in public, in daylight, in full view of the surrounding non-Jewish populations. In the aftermath, the value of Jewish life was, in the eyes of many around them, reduced to nothing — and this made possible the Holocaust's final, merciless chapter: the Judenjagd, the hunt for Jewish survivors that continued relentlessly until the war's end.This is a lunch-and-learn event. Dr. Grabowski will present an additional lecture the previous day at 4pm. To learn more, visit the Einspruch Lectures on the Holocaust page.Click here to register online; registration is required.

Considered the world’s oldest hatred, antisemitism has persisted for more than two thousand years, evolving and taking on new forms around the globe. Nations, international institutions, and policymakers face the urgent challenge of addressing this blight. Join us to explore this timely issue with Michal Cotler-Wunsh, an internationally recognized legal scholar and former Israeli Special Envoy for Combating Antisemitism.
About the Speaker
Michal Cotler-Wunsh is an expert on the intersection of law, human rights, and antisemitism, and the CEO of the International Legal Forum. Cotler-Wunsh previously served as Israel's Special Envoy for Combating Antisemitism and as a member of the 23rd Knesset, where she worked on issues of foreign affairs, justice, online hate, and Israel-Diaspora relations. A leading advocate for the adoption of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance Working Definition of Antisemitism, she has advised governments, international organizations, and universities on strategies to combat antisemitism and protect democratic values. An attorney by training, Cotler-Wunsh holds law degrees from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and McGill University.

Description:
Beneath the soil of the death camp at Treblinka, traces of the past remain. From July 1942 through September 1943, Nazi officials murdered an estimated 925,000 Jews and an unknown number of Poles, Roma, and Soviets at Treblinka. In the fall of 1943, following an uprising at the camp, Treblinka was liquidated, and camp personnel erased crimes committed there from the landscape. Through noninvasive forensic archaeological investigations using ground-penetrating radar, Professor Caroline Sturdy Colls has helped discover new evidence of Treblinka’s operations while preserving the dignity and memory of its victims in accordance with Jewish burial law. She joins DHHRM to uncover what this material evidence reveals about how genocide inscribes itself into the land, and how, with the right tools, we can still read it.
About the Speaker
Caroline Sturdy Colls, Ph.D., is a professor of Holocaust archaeology and genocide investigation, and director of the Centre of Archaeology at the University of Huddersfield in England. Sturdy Colls has overseen archaeological surveys at more than 60 Holocaust sites across Europe, and she has undertaken research related to genocide and mass violence in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Namibia, Colombia, and Cyprus. Her book Finding Treblinka: Forensic and Archaeological Perspectives, released in July 2026, outlines the results of her investigations at the death camp at Treblinka. In 2025-2026, she was the Ina Levine Invitational Scholarin- Residence at the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
This program is presented in-person at the Museum. Registration includes a 6 p.m. reception followed by the 7 p.m. program.Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum300 N. Houston StreetDallas, TX 75202
