We're pulling back the curtain on Holocaust education with Carolina Simon, the brilliant mind behind Zachor Shoah. Carolina's innovative approach emphasizes not just the historical facts but the human stories that are often glossed over. We delve deep, discussing the challenges of teaching such a dark chapter of history to young people.
Get ready for an intellectual adventure that takes us from the past to the present. Carolina uncovers the connections between the Holocaust, anti-Zionism, and modern anti-Semitism. The discussion moves beyond the theoretical and into the practical, proving that understanding history is not just about the past, but about shaping our future.
Finally, we examine the role of the US Constitution and its significance in preventing the repetition of the past's monstrosities. We'll compare it with the Weimar Constitution to see how these documents can either safeguard or foster a ground for prejudice and violence. To round off our immersive journey, Carolina takes us on a virtual tour through her unique study trips, giving us a glimpse of the transformative power of walking in someone else's steps.
