The collaboration will be part of the [USC Shoah Foundation's] Contemporary Antisemitism Collection, and seeks to showcase the various ways antisemitism has manifested since the Holocaust.
By opening our eyes to the crimes of the past, [survivors] create a lens for the future; one that binds us, Jews and non-Jews alike, to this subject and to one another. If we ever hope to truly learn from the Holocaust, we must engage with the history as it happened to those who lived it.
Searching for Never Again from the USC Shoah Foundation, explores the past and present of antisemitism and hate, and how together, we can defeat it.
The USC Shoah Foundation, working with the USC Dornsife Institute of Armenian Studies, a hub of research and learning that studies the contemporary Armenian diaspora and Republic of Armenia at USC, has recently collected three interviews with descendants and scholars of the Armenian Genocide to add to its collection of interactive biographies (Dimensions in Testimony).
The USC Shoah Foundation, the Voces Oral History Center at the University of Texas, the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and Yad Vashem in Israel are among those that have collected testimonies of survivors and liberators.
Understanding the experiences of survivors and victims builds an understanding of who these individuals were before, during and, for the few, after the Holocaust. Learning their stories can also introduce awareness of how intertwined our fates can be.
