Nonetheless I liked the humanistic... - [TRC intro](https://ctholocaust.co.za/trc-intro/): Understating the Process of Seeking Truth and Reconciliation in South Africa  My previous blogs have rather been academic, as I’ve been trying to wrap my head around concepts which help us understand contentious moral issues concerning the history of the Holocaust. Allow me to be somewhat more personal this time.   My interest towards the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) was initially sparked by the Transitional Justice discourse in Taiwan – the topic I am writing my master thesis on. Both the German and South African experience of “coming to terms with their past” are discussed there as two... - [Meet Merentia](https://ctholocaust.co.za/meet-merentia/): Merentia’s story My name is Merentia Schwartz and I am doing a one year Internship at the Cape Town Holocaust & Genocide Centre, in order to obtain my diploma in Tourism Management which I studied at South Cape College, Oudtshoorn campus in the Western Cape.

It seeks to give any person the opportunity to work in... - [Volunteer Open Day](https://ctholocaust.co.za/volunteer-open-day/): If you would you like first-hand experience of how you can play a role in creating a more caring and just society,  join us for our Volunteer Open Day on Thursday 19 May from 3pm – 7pm.

Hannah Arendt, one of the most famous thinkers of the 20th century, was asked to write a report on the trial by the magazine the New Yorker, which went down in history as the “report on the banality of evil”, causing an outburst of outrage and heated, polemic debates. Why did her report upset so many people? And what can we learn from it, 60 years after the trial took place?    Debating the concept of... - [2021 Annual Review](https://ctholocaust.co.za/2021-annual-review/): 2021 Annual Review As we look back at the end of a challenging year, the CTHGC team would like to thank you for your friendship and support.

The Wannsee Conference, held in Berlin in January 1942, was the last step in transforming the concept of the “Final Solution” which was the codename for the annihilation of the Jews of Europe, into reality. SS General Reinhard Heydrich convened the conference to finalise the organisational, technical, bureaucratic and economic aspects of the programme. The question of whether or not the “Final Solution” should take place was not discussed as most participants knew that mass murder through the actions of the Einsatzgruppen... - [Witnessing Darfur](https://ctholocaust.co.za/witnessing-darfur/): Witnessing Darfur Exhibition The Cape Town Holocaust & Genocide Centre will be staging an exhibition entitled “Genocide and Darfur” created by the Aegis Trust from the 15th of December 2020 until the 22nd of January 2021.

As I said in my introduction to the talk, this work is at its very early stages, so these really are ruminations to be taken... - [The Liberation of Dachau](https://ctholocaust.co.za/the-liberation-of-dachau/): Dachau was the first, and longest operating, concentration camp. Built in 1933, just five weeks after Adolf Hitler became the German Chancellor, it initially housed Nazi political opposition. It was in Dachau where the Nazis’ political opponents would be exposed to harsh forced labour and inform the processes for the next iterations of camps. From its beginnings to the day of liberation, many prisoners, Jews, Roma-Sinti, political opponents and other categories of people deemed unfit for society by the Nazis, were subjected to extreme starvation, medical experiments exposure to diseases such as typhus, heavy labour and death until their liberation.... - [A tribute to South African Holocaust survivors](https://ctholocaust.co.za/a-tribute-to-south-african-holocaust-survivors/): We pay tribute to the Holocaust survivors who settled in South Africa as part of the Yom HoShoah Commemoration.

Why do we memorialise? We memorialise as a way to show respect and preserve the memory of individuals, whether passed or living, groups of people or events. There are many traditions to honour people: statues, buildings, tombstones, street names, physical spaces and more. However, even though the objective of a memorial is honour and remembrance, I believe there are aspects of memorialisation we need to address as the process is not as black and white as most people think. Are memorials neutral? Often times we assume memorials are neutral spaces.... - [Statement on the events unfolding at Greenmarket Square](https://ctholocaust.co.za/statement-on-events-unfolding-at-greenmarket-square/): The Cape Town Holocaust & Genocide Centre works towards creating a more just and caring society, in which human rights and diversity are respected and valued.

We are extremely saddened and concerned by the events that are unfolding at Greenmarket Square, Cape Town and recognise that the... - [Finding traces of Jewish refugees in South African archives](https://ctholocaust.co.za/finding-traces-of-jewish-refugees-in-south-african-archives/): The SAHGF Archive contains archival material related to both World Wars, Jewish life in Europe before the war, the Holocaust and its aftermath.

The Allied powers, including Great Britain and France, issued an ultimatum of war. German armed forces invaded Poland on 1 September... - [International Teacher’s Day: Remembering Janasz Korczak](https://ctholocaust.co.za/international-teachers-day-remembering-janasz-korczak/): In honour of International Teacher’s Day, the Cape Town Holocaust & Genocide Centre honours Dr. Janusz Korczak, the renowned Polish pedagogue, doctor educator, essayist, children’s author and pioneering proponent for children’s rights.

From the scourge of gender-based violence to the current wave of xenophobic attacks, our country is in crisis.

Every day the South African Holocaust & Genocide Foundation (SAHGF), through our three Centres in Cape Town, Durban and Johannesburg, works to create awareness of our own individual biases and to challenge perceptions of the ‘other’.

Internationally, women’s day is celebrated on 8th of March. This date was chosen in 1914 by various communist and socialist movements around the world, and subsequently designated internationally as a date to protest inequality between the sexes. So why does South Africa celebrate Women’s Day alone, a whole five months later, on 9th August? To answer this question, we need to travel back to a sunny winter Thursday in 1956. On that day, 20 000 diverse South African women marched to the Union Buildings in Pretoria. They were protesting the... - [Celebrating our 20th Anniversary](https://ctholocaust.co.za/celebrating-our-20th-anniversary/): This year, Cape Town Holocaust & Genocide Centre is celebrating its 20th anniversary.

As such, the pluralistic population of Yugoslavia included Orthodox Christian Serbs, Muslim Bosniaks, Catholic Croats, and Muslim ethnic Albanians, amongst others.
