Dr. Debórah Dwork, Founding Director of the Center for the Study of the Holocaust, Genocide, and Crimes Against Humanity, The Graduate Center – CUNY, joins the Center for Holocaust, Human Rights & Genocide Education (Chhange) for a commemoration of Yom HaShoah.

Chhange's keynote, Dr. Dwork, will speak about her new project, Saints and Liars, a book about Americans who traveled to Europe to aid and rescue people targeted by Germany and its allies. Who were these Americans who saw the possibility for action while everyone else saw none?

A virtual candle-lighting ceremony will follow.
