IN PERSON: While the atrocities of the Holocaust are widely known, the experiences of survivors in the aftermath of liberation often receive less attention. That's what this course will focus on: What came next? Through lecture and interactive discussion, we will explore the obstacles survivors encountered trying to return to life, the ways they adapted, and the lasting impact on their families and future generations. The instructor will share how these narratives have influenced his life growing up as a child of survivors, including an emotional visit to Poland that sparked his journey into Holocaust education. Together, we will learn about notable survivors, the early efforts to teach and commemorate the Holocaust, and the enduring lessons survivors have taught us. | Lecture + Q&A.
