Witnesses and History: October 7 Attacks, One Year Later

Mon, 09/30/2024 - 1:56pm

The USC Shoah Foundation stands in solemn tribute to the memory of those murdered by Hamas on October 7, 2023, and to those hostages still in captivity. As we mark this day, we reflect not only on the devastating loss of life but also on the dangerous beliefs that led to this atrocity.

The attacks on October 7 revealed the persistence of virulent antisemitism in communities across the globe. Antisemitism threatens the memory of the Holocaust, threatens individual lives and communities, and undermines democratic values, the rule of law, and global security.

USC Shoah Foundation testimonies, including that of Oct. 7, to be available in Hebrew

Dr. Robert Williams, USC Shoah Foundation Finci-Viterbi Executive Director Chair, said of the project, "The translation of our archive into Hebrew marks a significant milestone in our mission to thoroughly document the history of the Holocaust, as well as contemporary antisemitism, and ensure that these crucial survivor experiences are accessible to Hebrew-speaking audiences."
