A Forensic Approach to Holocaust Memory and Education

Thursday, January 277:00—8:00 PMVirtual ProgramNewburyport Public LibraryNewburyport Public Library, 94 State Street, Newburyport, MA, 01950

Ryan Lilienthal explains how he used forensic analysis techniques to uncover his family history, and he will teach you how to do the same.

Ryan engages audiences in a blueprint process to harness the vast array of increasingly available Holocaust-related archives to piece together the lives of Holocaust victims. In our digital age, primary source material, including video testimony, letters, photographs, and institutional and government documents are at our fingertips. The presentation shows how we can deploy our own critical analysis skills to reveal our family history by following the links to the history they left behind.
