HOLOCAUST & HUMAN RIGHTS EDUCATION CENTER AND IONA UNIVERSITY ANNUAL KRISTALLNACHT COMMEMORATION
Please join the Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center and Iona University for the Annual Kristallnacht Commemoration on November 15th at 7 p.m.
Dr. Rafael Medoff, noted historian, author, and lecturer will discuss FDR’s Response to Kristallnacht.
On the night of November 9, 1938, a hurricane of government-sponsored anti-Jewish violence erupted throughout Nazi Germany. How did President Roosevelt respond to the pogrom? Was there anything the United States could have done to help the Jews?
Dr. Medoff is the founding director of The David S. Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies in Washington, D.C. He is the author of more than 20 books, including Cartoonists Against the Holocaust. His most recent book is a textbook, America and the Holocaust: A Documentary History. He has taught history at Ohio State University and Purchase College (SUNY).
