Sugihara was a Japanese diplomat, serving as Vice-Consul of Japan in Kaunas, Lithuania at the outbreak of World War II. Caught between the Nazis and the Soviets, Jewish refugees from Poland and Jewish Lithuanians were desperately seeking ways to leave the country. They came to Sugihara looking for help. Risking his career and his own safety, Sugihara made the decision to issue transit visas which saved over 6,000 lives. In 1985, Israel named him among ‘The Righteous Among the Nations’ for his actions. A presentation by a child of survivors who were saved by Sugihara will follow the play.<\/p>\n

Keynote address Lessons of the Holocaust<\/em> \u2013 A Historian\u2019s Reflections by Michael R. Marrus. Today the Holocaust is understood to be not only one of the defining moments of the twentieth century but also a touchstone in a quest for directions on how to avoid such catastrophes. In Lessons of the Holocaust<\/em>, the distinguished historian Michael R. Marrus challenges the notion that there are definitive lessons to be deduced from the destruction of European Jewry. Instead, drawing on decades of studying, writing about, and teaching the Holocaust, he shows how the \u201clessons\u201d of the holocaust are constantly challenged, debated, altered, and reinterpreted. Prof. Marrus is Senior Fellow of Massey College and the Chancellor Rose and Ray Wolfe Professor Emeritus of Holocaust Studies at the University of Toronto.<\/p>\n
