- Lecture from March 21, 2024 at the George Eastman Museum.
Hear from experts on the analysis of photographs of the Holocaust for research and teaching, and the advantages, disadvantages, and ethics of viewing traumatic imagery. Wendy Lower’s volume, The Ravine, reveals layers of detail concerning the open-air massacres in Ukraine to enhance understanding of the place of the family unit in the ideology of Nazi genocide. Valerie Hébert’s edited volume, Framing the Holocaust, examines a series of photographs documenting a mass shooting in Latvia. Although the images are nearly unbearable to look at, the book offers a multidimensional discussion of the reasons why we should, including the challenges and responsibilities of using photographs to teach about atrocity.

This would be a very useful material for future researchers of Russian atrocities in Ukraine 🇺🇦 As Ukrainian myself I’m deeply ashamed that so many Ukrainians took part in the Holocaust.
