International Holocaust Remembrance Day
In observance of International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we invite the community to join us on January 27 for a program marking the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau. Presented in partnership with The National WWII Museum, this event focuses on the experiences of Allied liberators and what they encountered upon entering Nazi concentration camps. Our keynote speaker from the National WWII Museum, Dr. Bradley Hart, will examine how soldiers confronted the reality of the camps, how they understood what they were witnessing, and how those moments shaped postwar memory and responsibility. Through the perspective of the liberators, this program honors the victims, acknowledges those who bore witness firsthand, and challenges us to reflect on the moral weight of seeing, knowing, and responding to atrocity.
Dr. Bradley W. Hart is a World War II Military Historian at the Jenny Craig Institute for the Study of War and Democracy. Hart received his PhD in History at Churchill College, University of Cambridge and is the author of two books including Hitler’s American Friends: The Third Reich’s Supporters in the United States (2018). He is also a frequent media commentator and public speaker. He has appeared on television programs including The Rachel Maddow Show, American Experience, America’s Hidden Stories, and numerous others.
