Taking Action Together: “The Mirror of Goodness” with Stanlee Stahl

virtual

Join us for our latest installment of Taking Action Together as we hear from Stanlee Stahl, the Executive Vice President of The Jewish Foundation for the Righteous and a renowned Holocaust educator. In her presentation, “The Mirror of Goodness,” Stanlee will address the rescue of Jews by non-Jews during the Holocaust. She will provide some general history on the Holocaust and will then address rescue within the historiography of the Holocaust. Who were the rescuers, what did they do, and why did they risk their lives and often the lives of their families to save Jews, many who were total strangers? After the presentation, you will have the chance to ask Stanlee questions during our Q&A.
