SUMMARY:Virtual Teacher Talk: The Oppression of the Black Community in Nazi-Occupied Europe
DESCRIPTION:The prisoner registration card of Gert Schramm \nPart of the Wiener Holocaust Library’s free series of educational events for students and teachers\, drawing on our unique archive collection.\nThis education event is hosted in partnership with The German History Society \nBlack people experienced persecution and discrimination before\, during and after the Third Reich in Germany and elsewhere. This workshop will utilise the Library’s collections to explore how the persecution of Black people by the Nazi regime was not straightforward. There was a clear genocidal intention in Nazi policy towards Black men\, women\, and children\, but at a local level the implementation of these intentions was inconsistent and often haphazard\, which created a wide variety of experiences of persecution. \nThis virtual session is aimed at teachers and educators and will serve as an introduction to the topic – the themes introduced here will be developed further in a more intensive in-person workshop to take place in the spring. This event will be led by Dr Barbara Warnock\, Professor Robbie Aitken and Dr Jeff Bowersox. \nAims:  \n\nTo gain an overview of black history in Europe.\nTo consider Nazi policies towards black people.\nTo use the Library’s collection to explore the persecution and discrimination the black community faced in Nazi-Occupied Europe.\nTo gain an overview of Black history in Europe and of resources to support teaching on the subject.\n\nAbout the Speakers\nDr Barbara Warnock is the Library’s Senior Curator and Head of Education. \nProfessor Robbie Aitken is an Historian of Black Europe and Empire at Sheffield Hallam University. He has written widely on the development of a Black community in Germany from the 1880s up to 1945. His publications include Black Germany\, the Making and Unmaking of a Diaspora Community\, 1884-1960\, (with Eve Rosenhaft). Currently he is finishing a longer article on the Nuremberg Race Laws and their application to Black German residents. \nDr. Jeff Bowersox is an associate professor of German history at UCL. He researches and teaches on the connections that tied Germans and Europeans into the globalizing world of the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. He has published widely on German colonial culture\, most notably in his book Raising Germans in the Age of Empire (2013)\, on the history of toys\, and on Black entertainers in the German-speaking lands. He is also the managing editor of Black Central Europe\, a web resource making available historical materials on the history of the African diaspora in the German-speaking lands from the Middle Ages to the present. \nVirtual Event guidelines: \n\nThe Library will send you a Zoom link and joining instructions via email prior to the event.
