SUMMARY:Teaching about the Holocaust\, Learning from the Holocaust
DESCRIPTION:What is the relationship between teaching about the Holocaust and learning from the Holocaust? That is a question many teachers are increasingly asking. Can Holocaust education raise\nawareness of contemporary racism\, antisemitism\, Islamophobia\, and threats to democracy? Can Holocaust education help to sow “seeds of concern” among students and others about what it means to be a citizen in a democracy? Can Holocaust education contribute to understanding and preventing future genocides? If so\, how? Join us for an informative workshop on why it is\nimportant to teach the Holocaust in American classrooms today. \nSara & Sam Schoffer Holocaust Resource Center\nLiviu Librescu Classroom\n2nd Floor of the Richard E. Bjork Library – E206c\n101 Vera King Farris Drive\nGalloway\, NJ 08205 \nWednesday\, December 13\, 2023 \n4:30-5:30pm
