New Understanding about the Holocaust

Mary Lee Webeck and Cynthia Capers from the Houston Holocaust Museum led the class on a New Understanding about the Holocaust.  The class reviewed material on the book "Bloodlands" by Timothy Snyder". This book is important in that it does indepth study on the times, places, and progression of the Holocaust.  For further review you may want to read some of the following books: Rise and Fall of Third Reich, The Experience of Jewish Gettos During the Holocaust, The Holocaust by Bullets, Through Soviet Jewish Eyes, Skeletons at the Feast, and The Sandcastle Girls, Ordinary Men.
