The CVCC History Club will host modern historian, author, and retired William and Mary University Vice President, William T. Walker, who will present “New Lessons from the Holocaust” on January 31st at 12:15 in the Multipurpose Room, Merritt Hall.
Walker will show how modern scholarship reveals new aspects of the Holocaust, warning us that events like it can happen again. Recent outbreaks of ethnic hatred, resurgence of antisemitism, anti-government violence, and a decline in the respect for law mirror the conditions that led to Hitler’s rise to power. Current events make it essential that Americans better understand the Holocaust to avoid repeating this tragic chapter in world history. This event is free to the public.
