Online

At a challenging time for religious dialogue and healing, join Dr. Mehnaz Afridi, Director of the Holocaust, Genocide, and Interfaith Education Center at Manhattan College and author of Shoah Through Muslim Eyes, as she explores the rejection of myths about the Holocaust and Jews and offers new ways of creating understanding between communities through the acceptance and enormity of the Shoah. Dr. Afridi will also discuss Islam and principles of justice, as well as the role of Muslims in North Africa during the Holocaust, rescue stories, and how we can acknowledge narratives of suffering at different times in history.
