To bring awareness of the Holocaust, genocides, and antisemitism to Texas students, educators, and the general public by ensuring availability of resources and advising on relevant matters
"And you can bear, Mother, as once on a time, / the gentle, the German, the pain-laden rhyme?"
From “Nearness of Graves” [“Nähe der Gräber”] by Paul Celan, translated from the German by John Felstiner
The Holocaust was the systematic, bureaucratic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime and its collaborators.
The Texas Holocaust, Genocide, and Antisemitism Advisory Commission actively develops, hosts, and promotes programs related to Holocaust, genocide, and antisemitism education. The THGAAC partners with institutions within and outside of Texas to make Holocaust, genocide, and antisemitism education resources available to the public.
