In Episode 404 of The Andrew Parker Show, host Andrew Parker welcomes Steve Hunegs, Executive Director of the Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota and the Dakotas (JCRC), for a timely and wide-ranging conversation on the centrality of Israel to the Jewish people, the rise of antisemitism across the political spectrum, and the urgent need for education, security, and bridge-building in today's fractured world.Together, they explore the historical and moral significance of Israel—from the Torah to the Declaration of Independence—and how false narratives like apartheid and settler colonialism are weaponized against the Jewish state. Steve offers critical insights into how antisemitism has adapted over time, showing up on both the far left and far right, and how ignorance has fueled the normalization of dangerous rhetoric in American politics.Andrew and Steve don't shy away from hard truths—discussing misalignment in the Democratic Party, the need for bipartisan accountability, and what's at stake for Jewish Americans. But this episode is also filled with hope: from grassroots educational efforts and Holocaust education trips abroad to interfaith partnerships and the enduring work of the JCRC in defending democratic values.This is a deeply personal and politically powerful episode you don't want to miss.Listen now to understand the stakes, the struggle, and the strength of a community determined to stand tall.Support the showThe Andrew Parker Show - Politics, Israel & The Law.

In this Yom HaShoah special, Mijal and Noam sit down with Dara Horn, acclaimed author of People Love Dead Jews, to discuss Holocaust education and why it matters more than ever. Dara explores the rise in Holocaust denial, antisemitism post-October 7th, and how Jewish sovereignty challenges popular narratives. They explore why many Holocaust education programs erase Jewish civilization and present Jews solely as passive victims—and how that plays into broader societal discomfort with Jewish power. Dara also shares how her provocative book title came to be, and why understanding Jewish identity is essential to understanding antisemitism.

Guest Matt Ence is a teacher at Bountiful High School in Bountiful, UT. Matt retired from the military in 2017, when he began his teaching career. He teaches a course on the Holocaust, as well as courses in AP World History and US History. Matt became a Museum Teacher Fellow at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in 2023. Summary Matt discusses teaching a dedicated Holocaust course. He covers the chronology of events from Hitler's rise to post-liberation challenges using survivor testimonies, primary sources, and interactive activities. Matt emphasizes personalizing the Holocaust beyond statistics, exploring collaborators and bystanders alongside perpetrators, and connecting this history to other genocides to help students recognize warning signs and develop empathy for different groups. Three Important Takeaways Teaching chronologically helps students understand cause-and-effect relationships in Holocaust history, while personal testimonies humanize the statistics of 6 million victims. Holocaust education should include an examination of four groups: perpetrators, collaborators, bystanders, and rescuers, showing the complexity of human choices during this period. Connecting Holocaust history to other genocides helps students recognize warning signs and potentially prevent future atrocities through informed action.

In this episode, hear from prominent author Dara Horn (“People Love Dead Jews,” “One Little Goat”) about the key issues with the way the Holocaust is discussed and taught today. David and Dara discuss how the language used in Holocaust education threatens the erasure of modern Jewish culture and perpetuates antisemitism by painting Jews as feeble, helpless, and sometimes even extinct. They reflect on popular works about the Holocaust, how they are taught to students, and how we can use these conversations, in turn, to bring the rest of Jewish civilization into the dialogue. This episode is for anyone teaching the Holocaust, from Jewish settings to public and independent schools. This episode was produced by Dina Nusnbaum and Miranda Lapides.

2025 marks 80 years since the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp. It was at the centre of the Nazi campaign to eradicate Europe's Jewish population, and almost one million of those who died there were Jews - but Poles, Roma and Russian prisoners of war, among many others, also perished at the camp. Memorials, historical documentation and testimony from survivors help preserve this troubled history. But disinformation and cultural amnesia mean many people deny that the Holocaust happened. We hear from BBC presenter Jordan Dunbar, who visited the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp in Poland for a BBC documentary. He has been speaking to survivors of the Holocaust. He tells us about how this disinformation is spreading online, and what's being done to preserve accurate accounts of history.Plus, we also hear from Andy Pearce, an associate professor and historian at University College London's Centre for Holocaust Education, about how to approach conversations where Holocaust misinformation or denial is present.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 0330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Hannah Gelbart Producers: William Lee Adams, Benita Barden and Emilia Jansson Editor: Verity Wilde

In a time where Jews are the most represented group in reported hate crimes in Canada, learning about the history of the Holocaust is essential.

Even if you haven't visited the National Holocaust Monument in Ottawa, you may recall when it opened in September 2017 with one glaring omission: it didn't mention Jews. While the federal government did fix the plaque on the nearly $9-million monument, after that controversial opening, the monument sat largely ignored. Yes, it's used by federal politicians for Holocaust remembrance events, but there is limited signage and no tours to explain its significance to visitors or tourists. It's a problem that the Centre for Holocaust Education and Scholarship (CHES) wanted to fix. On Oct. 30, just before Holocaust Education Week kicks off on Nov. 4, the Ottawa-based organization, with support from Liberation75, unveilled a self-guided tour now available on IWalk, a mobile app created by the USC Shoah Foundation. CHES calls the tour "an essential companion to the monument," featuring information about the details of the monument along with survivor testimonies, educational materials for teachers and a virtual 3D tour. The CJN Daily's Ellin Bessner was recently in the nation's capital and wanted to see the monument for herself. Rather than take the IWalk tour, she met up with Mina Cohn and Artur Wilczynski of CHES for an in-person experience to hear the story and history behind this new immersive educational experience.

Two years ago, a Portland Jewish family’s home was destroyed in an arson. As they got rid of all their burned belongings, the one thing they couldn’t bear to do was toss out with the rest of the burned remains a 100 year-old Steinway grand piano that had belonged to “Grandma Bess.” Much of it was intact, though not restorable. They reached out to musicians and artists and ultimately found their way to Jennifer Wright. She’s a classical pianist by training, a composer and a sound artist who works with found instruments and other objects. The family, who wants to keep their identity private, worked with Wright over the next two years on turning the grand piano into a mixed media exhibit, including a newly formed glass piano and textile art made with the burned strings. In a statement that is included in the exhibit, the family wrote: “Seeing the piano transformed from a burned and destroyed object into the foundations of new instruments, furniture, art, beauty, and community awareness is a balm for the wounds of waste and loss. … Finding connectedness is an antidote to hate.” We visit the Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education to talk with Jennifer Wright and OJMCHE director Rebekha Sobel.

We talk a lot about learning from the Holocaust and lessons from the Holocaust, but we don't talk nearly enough about HOW to TEACH the Holocaust. Understanding how to present this complex and often difficult material to students at a variety of different grade levels (as well as to the public at heritage sites) is a critical task.In this episode, Dr. Irene Ann Resenly talks about the pedagogy of teaching about the Holocaust, challenges of working with this material in the classroom, and the ways in which heritage sites engage with visitors.

After Oklahoma voters decisively passed State Question 802 in 2020, mandating expansion of Oklahoma's Medicaid coverage to low-income citizens similar to the Affordable Care Act, Governor Kevin Stitt has worked to privatize the joint federal and state run healthcare program. As SoonerCare transitions to SoonerSelect, on April 1, 2024, the program will be operated by three private companies; Aetna Better Health of Oklahoma, Humana Healthy Horizons, and Oklahoma Complete Health. As of March 10th, the Oklahoma Health Care Authority, or OCHA, began auto-assigning members who had not selected their new plans. Shonda Little speaks with Jared Deck, State Representative for House District 44 in Norman and JeKia Harrison, President of the Young Democrats of Oklahoma, and a lifelong resident of northeast Oklahoma City to learn more about this transition and the concerns held by some about this change.In a groundbreaking achievement Traci Manuel, who both attended and taught at Booker T. Washington High School in Tulsa, has etched her name into Oklahoma history books, becoming the first African American educator to claim the prestigious title of Teacher of the Year. Anthony Cherry speaks with her and Milton Dean III. Dean has been in education for 16 years with Tulsa Public Schools. He currently serves at Street School, a nonprofit, alternative, therapeutic based school. Before that he spent four years at the Juvenile Detention Center, also known as the Tulsa County Family Center for Juvenile Justice to share more about Manuel's remarkable journey, from her teaching career to her statewide advocacy for a more inclusive and effective education system. Rebecca Marks Jimerson, the Commemorative Chair and Special Projects Chair of the Martin Luther King Jr. Commemoration Society, has a decade-long commitment to honoring Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy. Recently in Tulsa Jimerson produced a powerful partnership with the Jewish Federation of Tulsa, Circle Cinema, the Tulsa County Sheriff's Office, and the National Association of Black Journalists which shed light on the intertwined histories of Black people and Jewish people through a documentary entitled Shared Legacies: The African American-Jewish Civil Rights Alliance, directed by Jewish filmmaker, Dr. Shari Rogers of Detroit. Through her film she provides verbal accounts of how Dr. King and the Civil Rights Movement were able to move forward with some of this momentum helped by support of allies of the interfaith community even coming together with Dr. King in the marches for equality. This included footage of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel and other rabbis who were seen close to the front of several marches with Dr. King. This collaboration serves as a call to contemporary social justice movements to unite and continue Dr. King's vision of equality. Francia Allen attended the screening and speaks with Jimerson, Brae Riley, a board member and Chair of the Social Justice Sub-Committee of the Jewish Federation of Tulsa, and Ryan Thomas, the lead film programmer at Circle Cinema to expand on this powerful cooperation.

Episode 63.Audrey Reich is an artist and art teacher in New York and is also involved in Holocaust education. Audrey is a speaker and board member of the Holocaust and Human Rights Education Center. Daughter of two Holocaust survivors, she credits her parents with modeling awe and appreciation, openness and curiosity. Despite their trauma, deportations, and long paths to the U.S. they each managed to heal some and focus on building a new future. They neither dwelt in the past nor forgot it. Audrey has much to share, so I have made it into two parts. In this first part, we talk about her family, childhood, Poland, and begin exploring her teaching. Highlights:· The evolution of Audrey's engagement with the Jewish community, from a conservative synagogue to an open modern orthodox community· Audrey's parents are Holocaust survivors. The impact of their resilience and curiosity about life, is evident in their openness to different backgrounds and stories.· The importance of active remembrance of the past, coupled with a focus on reconciliation and moving forward rather than living in anger and resentment.· Audrey's exploration of Poland and China to document her family's story and her role as the family's storyteller.· Audrey's efforts to bridge cultural differences, particularly in relation to the Jewish community in Poland.· Audrey's approach to educating students about the Holocaust, emphasizing the role of active witnesses and the impact of carrying on the victims' stories.· Lessons learned from art history and Judaism, and how they intersect in the appreciation of nature, craftsmanship, and the ability to create something from nothing.Social Media links for Audrey:Holocaust and Human Rights Education Center – https://hhrecny.org/generations-forward/#ungerSocial Media links for Méli:Talking with God Project – https://www.talkingwithgodproject.orgLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/melisolomon/Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066435622271Transcript: Follow the podcast!The Living Our Beliefs podcast offers a place to learn about other religions and faith practices.

About the Lecture Perhaps the most powerful way to understand the Holocaust and the myriad methods through which Jewish people across Europe were dehumanised, excluded, persecuted and murdered is through the direct testimony of those who were the targets of Nazi antisemitism. In this special Lunch Hour Lecture to mark Holocaust Memorial Day 2024, Holocaust survivor Mala Tribich, who was nine years old when the Nazis invaded her birth country of Poland, will talk to Dr Michael Spence, President & Provost of UCL, about what happened to her and her family, how she survived against the odds, her liberation by the British at Bergen-Belsen, and ongoing effects of this traumatic past. As part of the conversation, Mala and Ruth-Anne Lenga (UCL Centre for Holocaust Education) will also discuss how the testimony of survivors forms a vital part of educating about the Holocaust in schools and tackling stereotypes, misconceptions and generalisations about Jewish life and experiences before, during and after the Holocaust. About the Speakers Mala Tribich MBE was born in 1930 in Piotrkow Trybunalski, Poland. Following the Nazi invasion in 1939, her family was forced to move into a ghetto in her hometown, the first in Poland. Although attempts were made to hide her and other children in the family, Mala remained in the ghetto until it was liquidated and she was held as a slave labourer and then transported Ravensbrück and then eventually to Bergen-Belsen, where she remained until the camp was liberated. By then, she was just a girl of 14 years of age. In March 1947 she moved to the UK to be reunited with her brother Ben Helfgott, the only member of her close family to have survived. She made her life in the UK, working as a secretary before gaining a degree in Sociology from the University of London. She married her husband Maurice in 1950 and today has two children and three grandchildren. Mala is a regular speaker at many national memorial events, schools and universities and is now one of the few remaining survivors of the Holocaust.

As Holocaust Memorial Day 2024 passes, Tom is joined by senior leader James Griffiths and head of humanities Domonic Townsend to discuss the role of Holocaust education in History teaching today. They consider questions of curriculum, pedagogy and common student misconceptions, and why films like One Life do not tell the full story of Britain's actions and inactions in this period. Plus, Katherine Prange shares her insights into Holocaust education in the USA amidst rising antisemitism across the pond, as one in five young Americans believe the Holocaust to be a myth.
With antisemitism on the rise, the need for Holocaust education has never been more important. That's where Emmy award-winner Julianna Margulies comes in. In 2022, Julianna helped to found the Holocaust Educator School Partnership, an initiative to help train undergraduate and graduate students in how to teach about the Holocaust in the classroom. In this episode, Julianna Margulies sits down with host Jay Ruderman to discuss the misconceptions and challenges facing the Jewish community today, and what allyship means to her.

A sharp rise in antisemitic incidents has led to increased calls for mandatory Holocaust education. In this episode, host Avishay Artsy speaks with educators Sarah Ellen Zarrow and Jody Spiegel about the use and misuse of Holocaust memory for combating antisemitism.
Laura Zelle is Director of Holocaust Education at the Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota and the Dakotas, (JCRC) where she has been on staff since 2005. Laura oversees the daily operations of the program, writing grants and delivering curriculum, educator workshops, speakers, and film showings. She has been responsible for the vision and creation of numerous educational resources. Laura's creativity and dedication to anti-bias education is apparent in her latest national project. After forming a separate non-profit in 2012 called “Tolerance in Motion”, Laura raised funds, recruited board members and envisioned the narrative path for a traveling exhibition that would eventually be accepted by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (“SITES”). Four years later, in 2016, Laura pitched the idea to the Smithsonian and soon became the project director for the “The Bias Inside Us.” The four-year tour, developed with multiple national advisory councils, Smithsonian colleagues, and content experts from Harvard University is a community engagement effort that raises awareness about the social science and psychology of implicit bias, the impact of this bias and what people can do about it. Along with a small group of co-curators, Laura shaped the vision for the project and worked on a national level securing funding, resources, international artwork, creating the design and media components including an interactive video, designed the website and recruited educational partners across the country. Laura's commitment to Holocaust education is evident in the work she has done at the JCRC to ensure that Minnesota local Holocaust survivor community's stories and lessons are preserved. Starting with her own mother, Mary, she is executive producer of the award winning documentary about her family story of survival from Athens, Greece. She produced a total of five documentaries, co-edited a book, and is published in an anthology called “White Teachers Diverse Classrooms.” She is also co-curator of the photographic exhibition “Transfer of Memory” which tells the stories of Minnesota Holocaust survivors. Tens of thousands of people have seen the exhibit and over two million media impressions have been generated. All of this and much more reflects Laura's vision of teaching the Holocaust. Laura began her career as a St. Paul public school teacher where she taught for 15 years. In this episode we discuss: The definition of anti-semitism. A brief history lesson on Israel and the geopolitical lens. Recognizing and understanding problematic rhetoric. What ideology are you supporting? The moral confusion around the world. How important it is to educate yourself.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for Nov 11th Publish Date: Nov 10th Commercial: Henssler :15 From the Henssler Financial Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Saturday, November 11th and Happy heavenly Birthday to General George Patton. ***PATTON MOVIE*** I'm Dan Radcliffe and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia Man Gets Life for Stabbing Murder of Girl Nickajack Elementary School Foundation Raises over $200,000 in 2023 Back the Jack campaign Marietta Council Approves Staff Raises and Wage Hike All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: CU of GA STORY 1: Man Gets Life for Stabbing Murder of Girl An 18-year-old, Brayan Rivas, has been sentenced to life in prison, plus 20 years without parole, after pleading guilty to the murder of a female juvenile in Marietta in 2020. Rivas, associated with the MS-13 gang, attempted to initiate the victim. Marietta Police responded to a missing female juvenile report, finding that Rivas had confronted the victims, attempted to start a fight, and threatened them with a knife. Pursuing them into the woods, Rivas stabbed the girl to death. The motive was linked to gang initiation. The Cobb District Attorney called it one of the most heinous and senseless murders. STORY 2: Nickajack Elementary School Foundation Raises over $200,000 in 2023 Back the Jack campaign The Nickajack Elementary School Foundation has achieved a record-breaking fundraising campaign, surpassing its goal by raising over $200,000. The annual Back the Jack campaign received support from over 340 individual donors, contributing over $134,000, with additional corporate matches exceeding $25,000. Local businesses also contributed over $45,000. The funds will be used to support various educational programs, including STEAM days, an annual STEAM night, the Teach Grant program, and other initiatives. The Foundation aims to enhance the school's curriculum and educational priorities, with planned projects such as teacher training in Orton-Gillingham phonics methods and the introduction of a NASA Space Program trailer. STORY 3: Marietta Council Approves Staff Raises and Wage Hike The Marietta City Council unanimously approved staff raises ranging from 4-7%, with the lowest wage increased from $15 to $17 per hour. City Manager Bill Bruton stated that the raises would cost the city $3 million annually, funded by delaying capital expenditures. The change came after staffing challenges, particularly in public safety and electric line workers, necessitated higher raises. The revised proposal includes 4% raises for general employees, 5% for electric line workers, and 7% for public safety personnel. The starting hourly wage for the lowest-paid employees was increased from $15 to $17. The raises will be effective from December 10. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info. We'll be right back Break: ESOG – ELON – DAYCO STORY 4: Dysfunction Reigns at Marietta Council's Apartment Building Debate The Marietta City Council voted to delay the decision on Bridger Properties' proposed downtown apartment building until January. The Atlanta-based developer seeks to construct a 122-unit building, five stories at its tallest point, on a 1.25-acre lot downtown. The Historic Board of Review rejected two designs for the building. The council was divided on the issue, with Councilwoman Cheryl Richardson proposing a delay to work on a compromise. The council eventually voted 6-1 to table the issue for two months, with Mayor Steve “Thunder” Tumlin vetoing it, and later the council voted 5-2 to override the veto. STORY 5: Mayor Vetoes Mixed-Use Project at Former Harry's Farmers Market Site Marietta Mayor Steve "Thunder" Tumlin vetoed the City Council's 6-1 approval of a mixed-use development by Westplan Investors at a struggling shopping center. The project seeks to redevelop 19.25 acres near Roswell and Powers Ferry roads into a mix of retail and 236 apartments, down from the originally proposed 328, and 28 townhomes. Tumlin expressed concerns about the balance of apartments and townhomes and had hinted at a possible veto. The mayor's veto can be overridden by five council members. The property, already zoned for mixed-use development, requires council approval of its site plan for redevelopment. We'll be back in a moment Break: TEDS - DRAKE – INGLES 1 STORY 6: Cobb Schools Super Wants General Assembly to Consider Book Rating System The Cobb County School District in Georgia is considering advocating for a state rating system for books, similar to movie ratings, as part of its legislative priorities under a new "safety and security" category. The system aims to prevent inappropriate materials from being accessed by children. Some school board members, like Democrat Becky Sayler, expressed concerns about who decides what's inappropriate and the potential for outside influences to shape book selection. Superintendent Chris Ragsdale emphasized the need to exclude obscene, pornographic, lewd, and sexually explicit material, drawing parallels with existing content filtering laws like the Children's Internet Protection Act. STORY 7: Navy Chiefs Featured at New KSU Exhibit Kennesaw State University's Museum of History and Holocaust Education is launching a Veterans Day exhibit featuring artifacts from U.S. Navy chiefs. The exhibit highlights the history of Dobbins Air Reserve Base and its connection to multiple military branches, particularly Navy chiefs. Chief Petty Officer Keon Coates, a training coordinator at KSU, played a significant role in curating the exhibit, showcasing artifacts from his Navy service, including a unique paddle and a gold plate from West Africa. The second part features challenge coins collected by service members, symbolizing achievements and fostering camaraderie. The exhibit opens on Saturday and will run until November 2024.

SEASON 2 of Kait Coaching The Podcast begins with an impactful episode. This week, Kaitlyn sits down with her brother Matthew to have an honest conversation with holocaust survivor Mark Schonwetter. Over the last few years, Mark and his daughters Ann Arnold and Isabella Fiske, have been sharing his story of survival with adults of all ages as well as students all over the United States. In 2016, Ann put her father's story in writing and published her first book, Together A Journey for Survival. Through Ann & Isabella's travels and speaking engagements they discovered one of the biggest obstacles that schools face with Holocaust Education is budget restraints. As a result, they have established the Mark Schonwetter Holocaust Education Foundation. The goal of this foundation is to raise funds to allow schools to apply for grants that will aide them in purchasing materials and funding programs that will enhance Holocaust curriculum.

All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Commercial : CU of GA STORY 1 convicts: A jury in Cobb County has convicted a Buford man, Robert Lorenzo Cox, on charges of vehicular homicide and other related offenses for a 2020 car crash that resulted in the death of Smyrna Police Officer Christopher Ewing. Cox was found guilty of first-degree vehicular homicide, failure to yield, open container, and tampering with evidence. The crash occurred when Cox's vehicle, a Chevrolet Tahoe, failed to yield and made a left turn in front of Officer Ewing's police cruiser while he was conducting a traffic stop. Officer Ewing was fatally injured in the collision. Authorities determined that Cox was under the influence of alcohol at the time. Jurors heard witness testimonies and reviewed dash camera footage during the trial. Cox, who had been released on bond, was taken into custody after the verdict. Sentencing is scheduled for next month. Story 2: relieved The family of disbarred lawyer Richard Merritt expressed relief with the sentence he received this week. Merritt, who was on the run for eight months, has been sentenced to life in prison plus 5 years for the murder of his mother, Shirley Merritt. A DeKalb County jury found him guilty of murder, aggravated assault, and possessing a weapon during the commission of a crime. Richard Merritt had previously pleaded guilty to stealing settlement money from his clients and was due to serve a 15-year sentence. However, he cut off his ankle monitor and became a fugitive. The court was shocked by his violent act, especially considering his mother had supported him during the trial. The Merritt family welcomed the verdict and felt the punishment was appropriate for his actions. Story 3: The Cobb County District Attorney's Office has announced that it will not retry Justin Ross Harris for murder after his conviction was overturned by the Georgia Supreme Court. Harris will continue to serve a 12-year sentence for sex offense convictions related to an affair with a minor. The murder conviction was overturned due to the wrongful use of evidence of Harris' extramarital affairs. The DA's Office cited the unavailability of crucial motive evidence in their decision not to retry him. Harris' attorneys maintained that the death of his son, Cooper Harris, was an accident, and the dismissal of charges confirms it was unintentional......we'll have more in a moment.

Holocaust education was brought about to battle antisemitism, but perhaps there's more that could be done. Dara Horn joins host Krys Boyd to discuss why focusing on the atrocities of WWII hasn't stopped growing antisemitism today – and to offer ways we need to expand education about Jewish life to combat it. Her article published in The Atlantic is called “Is Holocaust Education Making Anti-Semitism Worse?”
