Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with Prof. Manuela Consonni, director of Hebrew University's Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism. Consonni, a leading scholar of Holocaust memory, gender, and post-war European culture, decided to mark Yom Hashoah, Israel's Holocaust Remembrance Day, with an exhibition at the Mount Scopus campus called, "Faces of Women's Resistance." The exhibition looks at how women -- Jewish and non-Jewish -- resisted the Nazi regime. Like men, many were fighters, partisans and rescuers, but also the sheer survival of their family was put on the shoulders of many mothers. We discuss definitions of resistance and what means were available to women during the Nazi regime. And finally, we delve into the use of Holocaust language when discussing the hostages kept by Hamas in Gaza since October 7, 2023. So this week, we ask Prof. Manuela Consonni, what matters now?

Speaker: Dr. Robert S. Wistrich (z"l) Affiliation: Director, The Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism (SICSA), Hebrew University, Jerusalem Title: "Antisemitism and Holocaust Denial in the Contemporary World" Location: Yale University, New Haven, CT Date: February 19, 2009 Description: Dr. Robert S. Wistrich (z"l) maintains that as the number of those who witnessed the horrors of the Holocaust are diminishing by the years, the challenges of communicating the atrocities of the Holocaust to the next generation are becoming exceedingly difficult. Many today, including teenagers, have been exposed to the literature of Holocaust denial and are becoming highly skeptical that such horrific brutalities had been committed against the Jews. Dr. Wistrich maintains that despite intense efforts of commemoration and education, the current generation is severely lacking in both the knowledge and understanding to effectively combat modern manifestations of antisemtisim.
