Title: \u201cLet the Artefacts Speak: Returning Humanity to Holocaust Victims\u201d
\nLecture presented by: Dr. Robert Ehrenreich of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum
\nLecture begins at 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

Six million Jews were murdered during the Holocaust. The number is staggering. It is the equivalent of almost seven Ottawas. How can we represent the magnitude of this crime without reducing the victims to mere numbers? How can we show, as Holocaust survivor Abel Herzberg said so well, that \u201cThere were not six million Jews murdered; there was one murder, six million times\u201d? How do we convey that these were real people with real lives and families. In this presentation, I will discuss how personal items can turn the huge numbers of victims back into individuals and return their humanity, based on three case-studies: personal items discovered near shooting pits in Ukraine; damaged photographs from Poland; and a piece of mica from the Theresienstadt Glimmerwerke (mica works).<\/p>\n
