Please join the USC Shoah Foundation and our partners at UCLA as we hear from Dr. Leon Saltiel who will focus on the challenges of grappling with the past and with current antisemitism.

In a follow up to her inaugural lecture series, Mélanie Péron will discuss how she and her students at the University of Pennsylvania drew upon a wealth of different sources such as diaries and archives to reconstruct the individual stories of Jewish children and their families in occupied France before they were reduced to a typed line on a deportation list and the importance of using sources such as diaries and video testimonies to teach about the Shoah despite the inexorable disappearance of the last remaining witnesses.

Join us as Professors Michelle Lynn Kahn and Steven J. from the University of Southern California’s Casden Institute for the Study of the Jewish Role in American Life, explore the lingering international support for Nazism post World War II.
