Along with thought-provoking conversations, those who attend can enjoy a musical performance by renowned artist Elizabeth Schwartz and hear from Southwestern College’s award-winning student journalists, who will share what they’ve learned from profiling Holocaust survivors in San Diego.
With incidents of hate-based violence rising across San Diego and beyond, communities have grappled not only with how to protect Jewish, LGBTQIA+, and other communities impacted by hate but how to end hate for good.
Remembering the Holocaust is not only an occasion to remember the millions of people lost to Nazi oppression but to recognize how such hatred may arise and how we, as a community, can combat it. Today’s event offers opportunities for people to fight against hatred and create kinder, more just neighborhoods where all, regardless of one’s religion, ethnicity, race, sexuality, gender, gender identity, culture, or background, may thrive.
