HBI’s Holocaust Research Study Group commemorated Holocaust Remembrance Day, Yom HaShoah with a panel focusing on how the memory of the Holocaust exists in complex personal and political conversations surrounding the contested narratives of Israel/Palestine, the Gaza War, and its repercussions.
Two presentations were offered prior to a panel discussion by members of the Holocaust Research Study Group:
Sarah Silberstein Swartz, “How I Learned to Listen to the Other Side: A Personal Reflection on the Israel/Palestine Conflict”
Laurel Leff, “How Not to Learn from History: The Holocaust in Press Coverage of the Gaza War”
