This episode explores the evolving landscape of Holocaust remembrance with Dr. Sarah Crane, Visiting Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at the University of Cincinnati and Scholar in Residence at the Holocaust & Humanity Center.
“The Holocaust gives us ways to answer deep questions about what it means to be human—but it’s going to keep evolving, and that’s why these conversations remain relevant.” — Dr. Sarah Crane
Lauren Karas, Chief Learning Officer at the Nancy & David Wolf Holocaust & Humanity Center, and Dr. Crane are guided by their character strengths of love of learning and perspective. They discuss how memorials, survivor testimonies, and historical trials shape our collective memory and challenge us to confront modern injustices. They emphasize that Holocaust remembrance is an ongoing, dynamic conversation—one that continues to evolve as we ask deeper questions about history, humanity, and responsibility.
Tune in to discover how engaging with history can empower us all to be upstanders in today’s world.
