Women in The Holocaust
Women in The Holocaust
The Nazi regime subjected women to violence that was unique to the gender of the victims, and examining the Holocaust through this lens creates a more nuanced understanding and insight into the use of gender as a weapon. This program explores the unique experiences of women as they focused on daily survival, refused to be dehumanized, and were often at the heart of resistance, whether spiritual, cultural, or armed. This program will focus on women as fierce resistors, as survivors of the Nazi death machine, and as rescuers awarded the title “Righteous Among the Nations.”
