Contact UsMCHE’s mission calls upon us to utilize the lessons of the Holocaust to combat genocide. Through this partnership with the University of Missouri-Kansas City, we present public history workshops focused on other genocides. Graduate students from Dr. Andrew Bergerson’s World History Colloquium will present case studies in genocide, lead participants in a discussion about each study, and highlight the insights that these genocides might provide about the Holocaust.
This panel discussion explores the perspectives of survivors, liberators, the military command staff, and President Truman on liberation and the immediate aftermath of the Holocaust.
Panelist are: Jessica Rockhold, Midwest Center for Holocaust Education; Jeff Nelson, Eisenhower Presidential Library and Museum; Mark Adams, Truman Presidential Library and Museum.
