Women's Roles in the Holocaust - Virtual Presentation
Virtual
Join us for a powerful presentation by the Zekelman Holocaust Center as we explore the often-overlooked roles of women during the Holocaust. This discussion will shed light on both female guards and prisoners, revealing perspectives that history has often left in the shadows. Additionally, we’ll examine the broader impact of individual and corporate choices—how major brands profited from the war and the ways in which everyday decisions shaped history. As we celebrate Women's History Month, this presentation challenges us to reflect on the power of our own choices and how what we support can influence the world for better or worse. This is a virtual presentation on Thursday, March 20 at 6 p.m. Register below to receive the link.
