  • The Boys of Terezin
    The Boys of Terezin Teacher Resource Package Prepared by: Susan Starkman, B.A., M.Ed Synopsis Country of Origin: United States Director: John Sharify Runtime: 52 minutes Themes: Holocaust, overcoming adversity, healing power of art, music and literature This uplifting documentary is testament to the way that the drive for creativity cannot be stifled, even under the most challenging conditions. Risking their lives, the teenage residents of Home One, a children’s concentration camp, created a magazine called VEDEM that chronicled their daily lives through essays, poems and pictures. The last boy to remain at Terezin buried all 800 pages, retrieving the manuscript after liberation. In 2010, Music of Remembrance commissioned Vedem, an oratorio based on the boys’ experiences, to be performed by the Seattle Boychoir. Included in this group, is Toronto’s George Brady, familiar to many as the brother of Hana Brady (Hana’s Suitcase). Curriculum Links The Boys of Terezin can be used to meet the requirements of the Media Studies component of English, Grades 7-12. It can also be used to meet the requirements of Grade 10 History (CHC2D), Grade 12 World History: The West and the World (CHY4U), and Grade 12 Adventures in World History (CHM4E).

  • History As Evidential Study in Teaching of the Holocaust
    e Holocaust History as evidential study in teaching of the Holocaust Nokuzola Bikwana Cape Town Holocaust Center [email protected] Each time a man stands up for an ideal or acts to improve the lot of others or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope; and crossing each other from a million di!erent centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance”. Senior Robert F Kennedy in a speech at UCT in June 1966. Abstract !is paper will discuss how various programmes support the teaching of the Holocaust through evidence. !e Holocaust also provides an ideal backdrop for a study of racism, victimisation and persecution. Mindful of the di"culty of comparing historical events, we nonetheless maintain that of a study of the Holocaust can show the learner evidence of the negative impact of racism, oppression, persecution, prejudice, stereotyping and victimisation in any society. We argue that the study of the Holocaust can encourage the learner to resist racism, discrimination and xenophobia, and develop empathy with the victims of prejudice. In so doing, learners can come to an understanding of their role as active members of the society, and those of others as bystanders or collaborators. We maintain that this aim is defeated when the educator or facilitator fails to provide enough evidence that will elicit empathy, understanding and develop this sense of agency among the learners. History is explored as an evidential study using various sources ranging from primary ones like photographs, artefacts, documents as well as secondary sources.

The Crocus Project – Booklist 1 There are very many books written about the horrors of the Second World War and the Jewish children who lived and died during it. Some are stories like Anne Frank’s. Some tell of survivors and refugees, some are about the brave people who tried to help. Most are based on true stories. The Nazis persecuted the Jews and they also persecuted others: black people, homosexuals, Roma and people with disabilities. Writers, journalists, socialists, trade unionists and political opponents to the Nazi regime were also targeted. There are several listings of books about the Holocaust suitable for children. The following are useful points of contact for lists and guides: • Publi c libraries www.askaboutireland.ie/libraries • Children’s books Ireland http://www.childrensbooksireland.com • Internationa l Board on Books for Young People http://www.ibbyireland.ie Every country participating in The Crocus Project will have its own recommended reading list.

  • The Holocaust, Museum Ethics and Legalism
    THE HOLOCAUST, MUSEUM ETHICS AND LEGALISM JENNIFER ANGLIM KREDER* I had dreamed, we had always dreamed, of something like this, in the nights of Auschwitz; of speaking and not being listened to, of finding liberty and remaining alone. PRIMO LEVI, THE TRUCE 47 (1966). Abstract: The “Holocaust art movement” has led to significant and controver- sial restitutions from museums. This article focuses on two emotionally driven claims to recover a suitcase stolen from a murdered man and water- colors a woman was forced to paint for Josef Mengele to document his pseudo-scientific theories of racial inferiority and his cruel medical ex- periments. Both claims are asserted against the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum in Poland, which has refused to return the objects. These claims provide insightful case studies for examining the emotional and ethical as- pects of such disputes. Drawing from a number of disciplines, this article demonstrates the inadequacy of the dominant frameworks influencing the cultural property field, which are grounded in property law, morality and utilitarianism, for evaluating the Holocaust-related claims. This article also demonstrates that the International Council of Museums (“ICOM”) * Associate Professor of Law, Chase College of Law, Northern Kentucky University; J.D., Georgetown University Law Center; B.A., University of Florida.
