Learning about the Holocaust through Narrative
Will Time Fade Auschwitz?
Dear Colleagues,
My sister sent me this article http://forward.com/articles/112465/ and I found it to be most poignant.
How can we as Holocaust educators (if you feel we should) distinguish between the then and the now? How do we teach Auschwitz as different from Oswiecim? What about the people? What do we envision as the educational challenges as time moves on and the Holocaust and Auschwitz becomes further in the past?
I am curious as to your thinking and reflections on this article.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Emily
