The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum is marking its 25th anniversary in a world still wracked by antisemitism, gross violations of human rights, and mass atrocity crimes. This panel discussion focuses on ethical challenges that confront Holocaust scholars and scholarship today. 

    You may watch a live broadcast this evening, May 7, at 7 p.m. ET and join the conversation using #USHMM.

    The program will be hosted by the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies with the Center's Acting Director Wendy Lower serving as moderator.

    Four leading scholars in the field of Holocaust studies will discuss what they have learned about historical forces, human nature, and the fragility of our ethical frameworks.

    • Debórah Dwork, Rose Professor of Holocaust History and Founding Director of the Strassler Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Clark University
    • Peter Hayes, Theodore Zev Weiss Holocaust Educational Foundation Professor of Holocaust Studies Emeritus, Northwestern University
