Othering, Occupation, Violence, and Denial

This project will organize a series of webinars and produce educational material concerning Holocaust distortion, particularly focusing on the current war in Ukraine. In four online events, participants will discuss how we use historical analogies of the Holocaust to make sense of contemporary world events. Through a call for papers, scholars from Ukraine will be actively encouraged to participate and the events will be bilingual (English-Ukrainian). The webinars, hosted by the JHGC, will be accessible as podcasts and there will be further distribution through the partners’ networks. Participants and the audience will be encouraged to use the output in their educational programs with students, educators, and other volunteers.
