Sunday, April 22 (11 a.m.)

Topic:
Curt and the panelists will talk about the Holocaust, the killing of 6 million Jews during World War II. In particular, they will discuss:

• Other massacres include the Turks butchering Bulgarians in the 17th century, Stalin's 1930s purge, and Afridan tribal warfare. What makes the Holocaust unique?
• In November 1938, Kristallnacht showed the world Germany's anti-Semitism. Why did other countries respond slowly, if at all?
• Once the Nazis had overrun Poland in 1939, how soon were Jews transported to concentration camps?
• A new book says that other Poles, not German police, helped to kill Polish Jews in July 1941. What are the details, and are they true?
• What is the greatest lesson to be learned from the Holocaust?

Panelists:

• Richard Dollinger, New York State Senator and twice-weekly cohost, "Talking Point", on WROC Television.
• Celia Applegate, Associate Professor of History, University of Rochester
• William Scott Green, Dean of the College, Professor of Religion, and Director of the Center for Judaic Studies, University of Rochester
• Ewa Hauser, Director of Skalny Center for Polish and Central European Studies, University of Rochester
