SUMMARY:International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust
DESCRIPTION:Join us on 27 January at 7pm (SAST) to mark the International Day of Commemoration in memory of the victims of the Holocaust with a keynote address from Professor Aomar Boum on “Revisiting Vichy Forced Labour Camps in the Sahara\, 1940-1945“.\nPlease register using the link below:\nhttp://bit.ly/3sC2FST \nSince the end of World War II (WWII)\, historical and autobiographical works on Nazi camps throughout Europe have dominated Holocaust and genocide literature. Compared to Nazi history of detention and concentration camps\, the relative historical amnesia and historiographical silence toward other camp experiences is largely reflected in the absence of broad historical studies that detail the complexities of camps established by other governments during WWII such as the United States\, Japan\, Italy\, Spain and France. \nDespite the growing historical interest in concentration and labour camps across the world today\, the memory of WWII is finally becoming a regular topic of academic interest in a few North African and Middle Eastern academic circles. These intellectual conversations promise to break through the walls of taboo in societies where Jews and non-Jews were affected by colonial regulations. \n–\nAomar Boum is an associate professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of California\, Los Angeles and faculty fellow at the Université Internationale de Rabat (Morocco). He is the author of ‘Memories of Absence: How Muslims Remember Jews in Morocco’ (2013)\, and co-editor of ‘The Holocaust and North Africa’ (2019) with Sarah A. Stein.

SUMMARY:Witnesses of the Witnesses
DESCRIPTION:Join the South African Holocaust & Genocide Foundation in partnership with the Embassy of Italy and the Italian Cultural Institute for a fascinating discussion inspired by the film and installation “Witnesses of the witnesses”.  This inter-generational conversation includes H.E. Paolo Cuculi (Ambassador of Italy to South Africa)\, Lina Kantor Amato (Holocaust Survivor\, Island of Rhodes)\, Dr Gary and Dr Linda Kantor (Lina’s children)\, Rene Pozniak (Leader of March of the Living\, South Africa)\, and Noah Tradonsky (Alumni of March of the Living\, 2015 & Emerging Leaders March of the Living Conference\, 2019). \n  \nBased on the interactive exhibition of the same name displayed in Rome in 2019\, this project stems from a group of students who participated in the Journey of Memory to Auschwitz. The group wanted to take charge of the transmission of the memory of witnesses who survived the killing centres\, so that the expression “not to forget” is not reduced to a mere formula of consolation. The video document is a choral memory that weaves different viewpoints into a layered fabric\, guided by the voices of surviving witnesses\, who met the students in the Journeys of Memory. \nThis event is part of an annual collaboration between the Embassy of Italy\, the Italian Cultural Institute and the SAHGF\, and the project was promoted by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation\, with the video produced by Studio Azzurro. \nClick this link to register and receive a link to the live webinar: http://bit.ly/3jD8ATM \nPlease note that the film will not be shown during the live webinar and should be watched in advance. \nClick this link to watch the film: https://vimeo.com/499141034/3768804aa4 \nPlease be aware that there are some distressing scenes in the film which are not suitable for sensitive viewers.

With hate on the rise and a global pandemic keeping us apart\, it’s essential that we come together virtually across lines of difference. The #TogetherWeRemember Coalition\, made up of leading genocide education and human rights organizations\, invites you to join us for twenty-four hours of inclusive name-readings\, insightful speakers\, and inspiring performances that honour the victims of and upstanders to identity-based violence and genocide throughout history. Join us as we remember humanity at its worst to demonstrate what humanity can be at its best. \nThis global vigil is the culminating event of the #TogetherWeRemember Campaign – thirty days of virtual events organized by museums\, schools\, and communities to bridge the gap between awareness and action in the fight against hate. On April 30th\, we intend to demonstrate the diversity and depth of work being done by incredible organizations around the world to make “never again” a reality – once and for all. \nThe SAHGF slot is at 2pm (SAST)

SUMMARY:Growing Up Jewish - Art & Storytelling by Jacqueline Kott-Wolle
DESCRIPTION:Register for this talk \n  \nJoin Kott-Wolle for a presentation and discussion of “Growing Up Jewish – Art & Storytelling\,” a series of 35 oil paintings and stories about Jewish identity in North America and how it transmits from one generation to the next. \n“They existed in living color for me – in their printed sundresses\, socks and sandals\, with numbers tattooed on their arms\,” she writes. “Some of them had haunted looks in their eyes and seemed burdened with a profound sadness that kept them at the edge of anger while others were brimming with gratitude and optimism as they rebuilt their lives in Canada. All of them viewed my generation as walking miracles on earth.” \n  \nBio: \nJacqueline Kott-Wolle (b.1969) lives in Highland Park\, IL where she paints full time.  In 2005\, after moving to Chicago from Toronto with her family\, Jacqueline fulfilled a long-time goal of developing her ability to paint by studying at The Art Center of Highland Park.  Using a fresh palette of color\, Kott-Wolle currently paints in oils and focuses on capturing precious moments with her family and friends. Her most recent project\, entitled “Growing Up Jewish – Art and Storytelling” is a series of 35 contemporary oil paintings and personal narratives exploring her North American brand of Jewish identity and how it evolved through five generations of her family. Her work has been exhibited in both group and solo exhibitions. Jacqueline’s works are in private collections throughout the United States\, Canada and Israel.

SUMMARY:Silvia Foti: The Nazi’s Granddaughter
DESCRIPTION:Register for this webinar \nSILVIA FOTI\, author of the memoir The Nazi’s Granddaughter: How I Discovered My Grandfather Was a War Criminal\, is an award-winning investigative journalist in Chicago and a high school literature teacher. She holds master’s degrees in journalism\, education\, and creative nonfiction. \nSilvia made a deathbed promise to her mother to write a book about her famous\, WWII hero grandfather\, Jonas Noreika twenty-one years ago. Silvia’s grandmother begged her not to write about her husband. “Just let history lie\,” she whispered. Silvia had no idea that in keeping her promise to her mother\, her discoveries would bring her to a personal crisis\, challenge her Catholic faith\, unearth Holocaust denial\, and expose an official cover-up by the Lithuanian government. \nHer goal in writing this story of her grandfather\, known as General Storm in Lithuania\, is to upend Lithuania’s narrative that Lithuanians had nothing to do with killing Jews\, that it was all done by German Nazis.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: I Am Here
DESCRIPTION:This screening forms part of the Encounters Film Festival. \nThis powerful film offers a portrait of 98-year-old Polish Holocaust survivor Ella Blumenthal\, whose vibrance and vitality has not been dimmed by either age or the weight of the terrible events she has endured. As Ella recounts her experience of the Holocaust\, the corresponding events are rendered in sensitively drawn animation. The film follows Ella\, who was a young adult at the time\, from her happy life as a Polish teenager to the horrors of the Warsaw Ghetto\, and on to Auschwitz\, where she narrowly escaped the gas chambers. At a time when Holocaust denialism has gained fringe legitimacy\, this is an important film and a counter to those who deny the horrors of history. In documenting Ella’s narrative of survival and transcendence\, the film provides a viscerally personal account of an historical event that is all too easily abstracted into ideology.
