"Spain and the Holocaust," a lecture by Maureen Tobin Stanley, is offered as part of this year's series, "[over] Sites of Memory." Stanley will discuss the little-known imprisonment of up to 15,000 Spaniards in Nazi concentration camps, which was carried out with the implicit consent of the Franco government. Future sessions in the series, which runs through Nov. 16, will focus on the varied meanings of place in Holocaust history and how sites associated with genocide are remembered, honored and preserved. Scheduled presentations include a lecture on the genocide of Native Americans (Oct. 28), a screening of
Stalags--a documentary about Israeli Holocaust pornography--(Nov. 2), a panel discussion with Holocaust survivors (Nov. 9), a lecture by former New York Times editor David A. Andelman on the Treaty of Versailles and the roots of the Holocaust in post WWI Europe (Nov. 11) and "Art and Remembrance," a lecture on redefining traditional memorials, offered by German artists Renata Stih and Frieder Schnock (Nov. 16). 7 p.m. in Sarratt Cinema.
