Description:
The Nazis stole art, but they also stole identity, history, and memory. Eighty years after World War II, thousands of stolen artworks have not been returned to their owners because laws permit institutions and third parties to retain them. Join award-winning author and prosecutor Adena Bernstein, granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, as she explores the remarkable stories behind Nazi-looted art in her new book, Stolen Legacies. This webinar will provide teachers with engaging strategies to bring history, ethics, and critical thinking into the classroom. Learn how to connect your students to history in ways that resonate, inspire, and promote empathy and justice.
