Littell and Hubert G. Locke in 1970, The Annual Scholars’ Conference on the Holocaust and the Churches provides an invaluable forum for scholars to report the latest findings in Holocaust research, ensuring the lessons of the Holocaust remain relevant for today’s world. As the first Conference bringing together Christian and Jewish scholars to examine the lessons of the Holocaust and its message for contemporary society forty-four years ago, the ASC is the oldest continuing conference of its kind in North America and remains the only one to include discussions of the role and responsibilities of the Churches, the Universities, the large Corporations and the Professions (medicine, law and media). The continuing goal of the ASC is to aspire to the continuum of respecting the past, with a realistic involvement of the present, in order that we preserve a future that retains the dignity and integrity of every human person.

A Polish Jew, Gerda Weissmann lived six years under German rule. It was a time when Jews were stigmatized, discriminated against, harassed and beaten. Their houses of worship were burned; their places of business, looted. They were driven from their homes, imprisoned in ghettos and forced to work in slave-labor camps. And they were murdered — some where they lived, town by town, person by person; others in death camps, where millions were gassed in an assembly-line process that mimicked the great factories of industrialized Europe.

Yom HaShoah April 21, 2020 - 27 Nisan 5780 By: Rabbi Dr. Michael Berenbaum Professor of Jewish Studies American Jewish University Passover and Yom Hashoah The Ethical Imperative of Remembrance No sooner have we finished Passover and Yom Hashoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, is upon us. The juxtaposition is startling. Passover celebrates liberation, the passage from slavery onto freedom, from Egypt to the Promised Land. And the Holocaust is the anti-Exodus, the passage from freedom – albeit not without discrimination and difficulty – to slavery and soon thereafter, to annihilation. God’s role in the Biblical account of the Exodus is dramatic. God smites the Egyptians, rescues the Jews, splits the Sea and provides manna throughout their sojourn in the desert. God’s role https://t.e2ma.net/message/ogtwec/sziwr0 1/5 4/20/2020 email : Webview : Today’s Torah – Yom HaShoah in the Holocaust has baffled theologians and rabbis, philosophers and survivors. Jews awaited miracles and they were not forthcoming. The Exodus was for a dual purpose, for the people of Israel to return to the Promised Land. After a 40-year sojourn in the desert, a new generation arose that was ready to live as free people in their own land.

It marked this occasion not by looking backward but, as it has throughout the years, focusing on the future. Among the year’s initiatives were “Leading Together,” a leadership development program for board and professional heads of day schools; Project EnAble, aimed at enabling students with diverse learning needs to thrive in day school settings; the launch of a third cohort of First 36 Fellows, bringing deeper understanding of neuroscience to bear on meeting the developmental needs of young children; and the start of Reshet L.A., a project helping congregations re-imagine and introduce new models of part-time Jewish education. At the same Gil Graff time, such ongoing programs as BJE March of the Living, JKidLA/Concierge—connecting parents with Jewish educational experiences appropriate for their children—and BJE Impact, BJE’s service learning initiative, touched the lives of thousands of students and families. Nothing as significant as Jewish educational leadership for the Jewish communities of osL Angeles can be provided exclusively by a lone entity. BJE benefits from partnerships with schools, a number of foundations including the Jewish Community Foundation of Los Angeles, the Jewish Federation and a wide variety of allied institutions. Jewish education is not about institutions; it is about individuals and families. The support of Jewish education, likewise, is not only institutional; it owes much to the individuals and families who share in this project.

    Witnesses to the Holocaust

    ZELLE SUSSMAN WITNESSES TO THE HOLOCAUST captures the vivid memories of people who experienced the Holocaust – those imprisoned in concentration camps, those who managed to escape internment, and those who liberated the concentration camps. Simple and eloquent, these testimonies detail not just the experiences, but the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of a world turned upside down. These are compelling stories not just of pain and death but also of individual acts of heroism and tenacity, the apex of the human spirit.

Project Director of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and its first director of the Museum’s Research Institute Former President and CEO of the Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation. Thank you. Thank you very much, Paul, for an overly long and generous introduction. Let me begin. By saying something that picks up precisely where you left off. The subject of this conversation is the relevance of Holocaust museums - relevance, and sustainability. I have a dream that the Holocaust becomes irrelevant. And what I mean by that is that we live in a world in which the issues that the Holocaust raises are looked upon as something that from barbaric 20th century, that literally has no relevance to the world in which we live. The problem that we face is something radically different, which is the Holocaust has abiding relevance because it raises many of the critical issues that are central to the world in which we live. I'm going to present for a moment, a little bit of a PowerPoint to get into it. But the most important thing is the ideal [that abounded] when we were creating the United States Holocaust museum.
