Holocaust Education Week Begins Monday

Please join the Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach, a Committee of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation, for Holocaust Education Week, which begins following Sunday's Kristallnacht commemoration. The program comprises a series of evocative films, discussions and presentations about the Shoah including movies like The Ritchie Boys and 1945; The Education of Herschel Grynszpan, a live play with award-winning actor Avi Hoffman; and a collection of video recordings from Survivors. With unspeakable acts of antisemitism occurring regularly across the country, educating future generations about the consequences of unbridled hate is more important than ever. All events will be virtual, free of charge and open to the public. Participants must register by clicking here or calling 305.538.1663. Program access information will be sent following registration confirmation.
