This year’s lectures were presented by Dr. Mark Roseman, the Pat M Glazer Chair in Jewish Studies at Indiana University Bloomington.

Sunday, October 20, 2019 – 2 p.m., Davidson-Gundy Alumni Center

“Flowers for the Heinemanns: The Hidden History of Helping Jews in Nazi Germany”

Using the remarkable example of a little-known oppositional group in Nazi Germany, the lecture explores the challenges and opportunities of helping Jews in the Third Reich, and the motives for doing so. It asks why those who lived under Nazi rule and took on the regime found it hard after the war to articulate what they had been through, and why much of their experience disappeared from memory. With the help of some unique wartime documents, the lecture seeks to recover a lost world of thought and action during the Holocaust.
