Shaping and Reshaping the Memory of the Shoah

Join Michal Govrin and Rani Jaeger for an exploration of the evolving role of memory, history and transmitting the meaning of the Shoah to the next generation, surrounded by fewer and fewer survivors. Learn about their development of Hitkansut, a new ritual for Yom Hashoah that weaves together texts, testimonies, discussions, prayer and silence in bringing new awareness to this act of remembering.

This program is sponsored by Helena Diamant Glass in cherished memory of her beloved parents, Regina Landwirth Diamant and Karl Diamant and all the members of the Landwirth and Diamant families who perished in the Shoah, and in honor of Rabbi Dr. Rani Jaeger and Dr. Michal Govrin.
