Here you’ll find an overview on different spaces and experiences in Holocaust History.
In “Refugee Experiences,” Addie Anderson ’24 and Luke Mitchell ’23 explore the refugee crisis created by the rise of Nazism, and the many ways that Jews tried — and often were thwarted — from finding safe haven elsewhere.
In “The Ghetto,” Julia Mahoney ’23 and Leo Artus ’21 examine the ghetto, a space where Nazis confined Jews in the territories they conquered in Eastern Europe.
In “The Camp,” Olivia Doran ’21 and Kaitlyn Lazorchak ’24 look at life, death, and work in the Nazi’s most infamous prisons and execution sites.
In “The Holocaust in the Soviet Union,” Jonah Pesikoff ’23 and Ben Gordon-Sniffen ’23 emphasize the stories of Holocaust in the Soviet Union, where the Nazis instituted their first plans of systematic mass murder, and Jews fought Nazism with partisans and the Red Army.
In “Non-Jewish Victims and Survivors,” Emma Melton ’24 and Anika Banerjee ’24 explore the often forgotten Euthanasia T4 Program and the fates of Roma in the Nazi’s racist genocidal policies.
In “Gender, Sexuality and the Holocaust,” Isabel Padalecki ’22 and Caroline Green ’23 examine sexual violence and choice before, during, and after the Holocaust.
