How to talk about Righteous among the nation – from micro history to macro history
On 2 December 2020 at 12.00 CEST, we are holding an online seminar entitled “The Polish Underground and the Jews." The Panelist: Inbal Raz (Mashmaut Center, Israel).
27 362 non-Jews were honored as Righteous among the Nations by Yad Vashem for taking great risks to save Jews during the Holocaust. This remarkable phenomenon aimed to emphasize the fact that in such a horrible period man/woman were also capable of keeping human values. The numbers do not necessarily represent the number of Jews who were saved in and also do not always present the number of rescuers. The numbers are based on material examined only by Yad Vashem. The lecturer will discuss some cases of rescuers and survivors that will emphasize the importance of the micro history about the Righteous among the nations in order to understand the Macro history of their heroic action.
The online seminar in the form of a webinar will be held in English on zoom.us, with simultaneous translation into Polish available.
