As part of our continuing virtual programming series, GCH Executive Director and Holocaust Educator Sally Levine presents American Witnesses: African Americans and the Holocaust.  Note our new late afternoon presentation time at 5 PM ET.   To receive a program link, RSVP to [email protected] specifying the program date. 

The GCH promotes the public understanding of the history of the Holocaust. While the human rights atrocities in Europe and Asia quickly come to mind, the Japanese American experience in the United States, which we are going to examine in this presentation, illustrates how prejudice and abuse of power impacted another group of vulnerable people during WW II.
