OVERVIEW:
This multimedia presentation will feature
interviews with three eyewitness survivors
of Nazi concentration camps and prisons,
presentations by three Holocaust scholars, and
a historical exhibit on the subject of
Jehovah’s Witnesses during the Nazi era.
For educators, attendance at this special event
will provide historical detail and valuable
teaching aids that explain the role of these
"other victims" of Nazism. For all, the event
will provide a powerful example of ordinary people
who followed their conscience in the face of
overwhelming peer pressure, intolerance, and hate.
VIDEO:
The program will include a showing of the
classroom edition of the documentary "Jehovah’s
Witnesses Stand Firm Against Nazi Assault."
The 28-minute documentary recounts the
persecution of a small, historically unique
religious group that refused to support Hitler’s
regime.
The "Stand Firm" film has been recommended by the
Association of Holocaust Organizations and by
San Diego City Schools.
EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS:
Copies of the documentary video and a classroom
study guide will be provided at no charge the day
of the October 8th event to educators who request
them in advance.
