Collection Description
Administrative History The Center for Research in Social Change was established at Emory University in 1965 to promote the study of social change and to train students in methods of social research. Fred Roberts Crawford was appointed first director in 1966. Crawford, a witness to the liberation of the concentration camp at Dachau, Germany, founded and directed the project. Originally, the project's aim was to collect eye witness accounts from Holocaust survivors and camp liberators in order to refute claims that the Holocaust never occurred. Later, the goal was expanded to include documentation and analysis of the long-term effects of the Holocaust. The project also sought to document smaller concentration camps and sub-camps about which little was known.
Scope and Content Note Project files from the Witness to the Holocaust project conducted by the Emory University Center for Research in Social Change from 1978-1982 include video recordings of interviews with concentration camp liberators and audio tapes and transcripts of conversations with camp survivors, many of them residents of Atlanta, Ga. The collection also contains a large collection of photographs depicting the prisoners, casualties, mass graves, facilities, and conditions in concentration camps. Additionally it includes subject files, including clippings, reports, and published materials relating to the Holocaust, Nazism, Israel, and Emory University's Holocaust project; photographs from the post-World War II era; and publications, including entire issues of such newspapers and magazines as Hadassah, Martyrdom and the Resistance, and The Southern Israelite. The collection documents events and long-term effects of the Holocaust.
Arrangement Note Organized into six series: (1) Project materials, (2) Project publications and products, (3) Collected research materials, (4) Administrative Records, and (5) Financial and donor records.
