This event for Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, will examine the framework we use for understanding resistance and challenge how we think of resistance in the Holocaust to include women and a feminist perspective.
We will have a panel with speakers presenting on different aspects of resistance, followed by a discussion. Speakers include four members of the HBI Holocaust Research Study Group: Karen Frostig, a public memory artist; Debra Kaufman, a sociologist; Ornit Barkai, a documentary filmmaker; and a presenter speaking on behalf of Sarah Silberstein Swartz, z”l, a writer and memoirist who recently passed away.
After a short break, we will screen “Resistance: They Fought Back” and follow with a talkback with Paula S. Apsell, “Resistance” co-director, facilitated by and in discussion with Karen Frostig, professor of art at Lesley University and affiliated scholar at the Women’s Studies Research Center.
