Echoes of History: Is This The Holocaust?
February 8 @ 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM
For many, the Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel on October 7, 2023 have triggered historical and/or personal/familial memories of pogroms and anti-Jewish violence that echo through history. How do those parallels help us understand current events through the context of Jewish and world history, and at what point do those comparisons cause harm by distorting history? This session will clarify how understanding the past can help us better address the present day and work toward a better future. Join Stephen D. Smith, CEO of StoryFile, and former Executive director at USC Shoah Foundation Institute, as he explores this topic.
