  • Holocaust Memorial & Tolerance Center of Nassau County 100 Crescent Beach Road Glen Cove, NY, 11542 United States (map)

Dr. Robert Williams, Deputy Director for International Affairs, US Holocaust Memorial Museum

In commemoration of International Holocaust Remembrance Day, HMTC is joining with a group of regional Holocaust Centers to present a virtual program with Robert Williams, Deputy Director for International Affairs at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, who will discuss how current conspiracy theories and tropes fuel antisemitism, both domestically and internationally, and why Holocaust education is such an important tool in combatting this problem. (This event is organized by the Harriet & Kenneth Kupferberg Holocaust Center at Queensborough Community College and is co-sponsored by the Holocaust, Genocide and Interfaith Education Center at Manhattan College; the Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center in White Plains; the Holocaust Museum & Center for Tolerance & Education at Rockland Community College; the Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County; the Wagner College Holocaust Center in Staten Island; the Gross Center for Holocaust & Genocide Studies at Ramapo College of New Jersey; and the Center for the Study of Genocide and Human Rights at Rutgers University.)
