The Shoes on the Danube: An interactive lesson exploring the memorialization of a massacre Date and Time: Wednesday, April 17, 2024, online, 5:30-7:30pm EDT Join us for an interactive lesson you can use to teach about memory/how we memorialize historic events; engage students in a geography-based approach with what the Holocaust was and how it was humanly possible; explore how personal stories—coupled with geography—can inform our learning about the Holocaust in specific places. Using Google Earth, film clips, and primary source interview excerpts from our achive we will study the placement of the memorial, explore its efficacy as a public remembrance, and discuss what it teaches us about the actions of Hungarians against their Jewish neighbors. You will receive all materials needed to teach this lesson, which you will be able to use to build context for reading books such as The Yellow Star House, by Paul Regelbrugge, one of the presenters. Appropriate for grades 6-12. Register here: https://lnkd.in/eTmSNaN9

When Susanne Fischer of the Global Task Force asked Michal Krejci, one of the participants of the Capacity Building Training Program, and a teacher of history and geography about the ways in which the workshop has enhanced his understanding on Holocaust distortion, he emphasized on the newness of the concept. “The concept of Holocaust distortion is absolutely new for me so I have many thoughts on how to teach about this topic. We deal with antisemitism, Holocaust denial and now we have another problem and how to work with it, how the students should approach it.” Want to learn more about the IHRA–UNESCO Capacity Building Training Program?
