Fall 2020 Events

Book Club

The RCHGHR Book Club meets regularly to discuss a book on a Genocide Studies-related topic. Past books have included Daniel Goldhagen’s Hitler’s Willing Executioners, Simon Wiesenthal’s The Sunflower, and Wendy Lower’s Hitler’s Furies: German Women in the Nazi Killing Fields

Conversation Series

The RCHGHR focuses on informal, student-focused discussions relevant to current local, national and international issues. Past Conversation Series have included discussions on the Syrian refugee crisis, national and international government elections, Holocaust denial, and hate crimes worldwide.

Research Colloquium

Several times each semester, members of the Rowan University and visiting faculty present their current research, followed by a lively discussion session.

Film Nights

The RCHGHR hosts regular viewings of films or documentaries that relate to the Holocaust and other genocides. Past films have included Conspiracy, Complicit: The Untold Story of why the Roosevelt Administration denied safe haven to Jewish Refugees, and A People Uncounted: the Untold Story of the Roma. Discussions or panels take place after the film.
