On Monday, January 27, from 1 to 3 p.m., the Oklahoma History Center Museum will host a panel discussion for International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
Panel discussion members will include Dr. Denise Neal of the OK National Guard Museum, Rachel Johnson of the Jewish Federation of Oklahoma City, and Michael Korenblit, author and Friends of the OHS Multicultural Office advisory board member. The panel will discuss the role and involvement of Oklahomans during the Holocaust through different experiences.
More than six million Jews in Europe were murdered by Nazi Germany between 1941 and 1945. Other victims include those deemed undesirable. The genocide victims were taken to concentration and extermination camps, where they experienced forced labor, starvation, torture, and mass execution at the hands of Nazi Germany. In all, approximately 11 million people were killed in concentration camps during the Holocaust.
The discussion will take place in the Musser Learning Lab on the first floor of the OHC and is intended for guests ages 18 and older. Admission to the Oklahoma History Center includes this event. Registration will be available online, and the program is limited to the first 50 people who register.
