SUMMARY:Virtual Book Talk: Drunk on Genocide - Alcohol and Mass Murder in Nazi Germany
DESCRIPTION:Professor Edward Westermann in conversation with Professor Dan Stone. \nIn Drunk on Genocide\, Edward B. Westermann reveals how\, over the course of the Third Reich\, scenes involving alcohol consumption and revelry among the SS and police became a routine part of rituals of humiliation in the camps\, ghettos\, and killing fields of Eastern Europe. Westermann draws on a vast range of newly unearthed material to explore how alcohol consumption served as a literal and metaphorical lubricant for mass murder. It facilitated “performative masculinity\,” expressly linked to physical or sexual violence. Such inebriated exhibitions extended from meetings of top Nazi officials to the rank and file\, celebrating at the gravesites of their victims. Westermann argues that\, contrary to the common misconception of the SS and police as stone-cold killers\, they were\, in fact\, intoxicated with the act of murder itself. \nDrunk on Genocide highlights the intersections of masculinity\, drinking ritual\, sexual violence\, and mass murder to expose the role of alcohol and celebratory ritual in the Nazi genocide of European Jews. Its surprising and disturbing findings offer a new perspective on the mindset\, motivation\, and mentality of killers as they prepared for\, and participated in\, mass extermination. \nAbout the speakers:\nEdward B. Westermann is Regents Professor of History at Texas A&M University-San Antonio\, a Commissioner on the Texas Holocaust and Genocide Commission\, and author\, most recently\, of Hitler’s Ostkrieg and the Indian Wars. His areas of expertise include modern European history\, the Holocaust\, and war and society. \nDan Stone is Professor of Modern History and Director of the Holocaust Research Institute at the Royal Holloway University of London. His research interests include the history and interpretation of the Holocaust\, comparative genocide\, history of anthropology\, history of fascism\, the cultural history of the British Right and theory of history. \nWatch back now:

SUMMARY:Virtual Talk: Iby and Trude: The Death Marches and Me
DESCRIPTION:Part of Death Marches: Evidence and Memory event series. \nIby Knill BEM & Trude Silman MBE in conversation with Tracy Craggs. An HGRP event hosted by the Holocaust Survivors’ Friendship Association. \nIby Knill BEM and Trude Silman MBE. \nThe Nazi death marches represent a chapter of history that is often forgotten or overlooked. Towards the end of the Second World War\, the Nazis forced tens of thousands of prisoners deeper into German territory by whichever means possible – often on foot. These journeys took days\, sometimes weeks; food was scarce; clothing was inadequate for the harsh weather conditions. Hundreds died before they could reach their destination\, or before liberation by Allied troops. The impact of the death marches is still felt to this day\, both by those who survived them and those whose relatives did not. \nIby Knill spent six weeks in Auschwitz-Birkenau before being transferred to a slave labour camp in Lippstadt\, Germany. In mid-March 1945\, the prisoners were taken on a death march towards Bergen-Belsen. Iby could hardly walk on the march due to an infection in her hip\, and credits her survival to the friends who supported and\, at times\, literally carried her along the way. She was liberated by American soldiers in Kaunitz on Easter Sunday 1945 and moved to Britain in 1947 with her husband Bert\, a British Army officer whom she married in 1946. \nTrude Silman came to England from her native Bratislava (then Czechoslovakia) with her aunt and cousin at the age of nine. Her father perished in Auschwitz; her mother Else remarried during the war\, perhaps in an attempt to avoid deportation as single people were often taken more quickly. Else’s mother and her husband were eventually sent to Sered’ concentration camp; they were separated when he was deported to Sachsenhausen. Trude still does not know exactly what happened to her mother but believes she was sent on a death march to Ravensbrück in March 1945 before being forced onwards to Volary. Her search continues. \nIby and Trude were in conversation with Tracy Craggs (Holocaust Survivors’ Friendship Association) where they discussed their experiences before\, during and after the Holocaust\, in particular\, the effect that the death marches have had on their lives. This was then followed by a short Q&A. \nWatch back now:

SUMMARY:Virtual Event: Kwibuka 27 – Genocide and the Politics of Memory in Rwanda
DESCRIPTION:A virtual panel discussion hosted by The Wiener Holocaust Library in collaboration with the Ishami Foundation remembering the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda. \nFlame of remembrance lit to mark the beginning of the 100-day commemoration period for the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda. \nApril 7 2021 marks the 27th anniversary of the start of the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda. This year\, Rwanda has repeatedly made the headlines with coverage of the arrest and subsequent trial of Paul Rusesabagina. This former rescuer faces multiple charges\, including financing terrorism and forming terrorist groups. But much media coverage until recently has focussed on his role in the Hollywood film Hotel Rwanda\, a role survivors have critiqued as simplified and inaccurate. \nThis commemoration period\, this Kwibuka 27\, questions about how genocide is remembered are at the forefront of conversations. Our panel members offered their own personal and professional reflections on: the importance of survivor voices and personal testimony (Omar Ndizeye); the challenges of navigating media simplifications and the nuances of intergenerational memory (Alice Musabende); and the role of post-genocide justice in shaping identity and memory (Phil Clark). \nThe panel was chaired by Zoe Norridge and there was time for questions and discussion at the end. \nAbout the speakers:\nOmar Ndizeye is one of only a few survivors of the two-day long massacre in Nyamata Catholic Church\, during the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda. He is currently co-writing a comprehensive book about genocide memorials in Rwanda and has contributed to multiple initiatives enabling survivor healing including the AERG counselling helpline. In 2020 he published his first book\, Life and Death in Nyamata: Memoir of a Young Boy in Rwanda’s Darkest Church. \nAlice Musabende is a Gates Scholar pursuing a PhD in Politics and International Studies at the University of Cambridge. Her research focuses on the role of global governance in rebuilding countries emerging from conflicts and mass atrocities. A former journalist\, Alice is a survivor of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi and has written and spoken extensively on the role of the international media in the genocide and its aftermath. Alice lives in Cambridge with her two boys. \nPhil Clark is Professor of International Politics at SOAS. Australian by nationality but born in Sudan\, he specialises in conflict and post-conflict\, with a particular focus on genocide\, peace\, justice and reconciliation in the African Great Lakes. His books include The Gacaca Courts and Post-Genocide Justice and Reconciliation in Rwanda (2010) and Distant Justice: The Impact of the International Criminal Court on African Politics (2018). He is currently in Rwanda with his family. \nZoe Norridge is Chair of the Ishami Foundation\, Pro-Vice Dean for Impact and Innovation and Senior Lecturer in African and Comparative Literature at King’s College London. She researches cultural responses to the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda\, with a particular focus on literature\, photography and place. Books include the translation of Yolande Mukagasana’s Not My Time to Die (2019) and Perceiving Pain in African Literature (2013). \nWatch back now:

SUMMARY:Rescheduled Virtual Book Launch: The Last Ghetto – An Everyday History of Theresienstadt
DESCRIPTION:Dr Anna Hájková in conversation with Professor Dan Stone\nWe were delighted to launch Dr Anna Hájková’s book The Last Ghetto as part of the new Holocaust and Genocide Research Partnership. \n \nTerezín\, as it was known in Czech\, or Theresienstadt as it was known in German\, was operated by the Nazis between November 1941 and May 1945 as a transit ghetto for Central and Western European Jews before their deportation for murder in the East. Terezín was the last ghetto to be liberated\, one day after the end of the Second World War. \nThe Last Ghetto is the first in-depth analytical history of a prison society during the Holocaust. Rather than depict the prison society which existed within the ghetto as an exceptional one\, unique in kind and not understandable by normal analytical methods\, \nAnna Hájková argues that such prison societies that developed during the Holocaust are best understood as simply other instances of the societies human beings create under normal circumstances. Challenging conventional claims of Holocaust exceptionalism\, Hájková insists instead that we ought to view the Holocaust with the same analytical tools as other historical events. \nThe prison society of Terezín produced its own social hierarchies under which seemingly small differences among prisoners (of age\, ethnicity\, or previous occupation) could determine whether one ultimately lived or died. During the three and a half years of the camp’s existence\, prisoners created their own culture and habits\, bonded\, fell in love\, and forged new families. Based on extensive archival research in nine languages and empathetic reading of victim testimonies\, The Last Ghetto is a transnational\, cultural\, social\, gender\, and organizational history of Terezín\, revealing how human society works in extremis and highlighting the key issues of responsibility\, agency and its boundaries\, and belonging. \nAbout the speakers:\nDr Anna Hájková\nDr Hájková is Associate Professor of Modern European Continental History at the University of Warwick. She regularly contributes to mass media in English\, German\, and Czech in the publications Haaretz\, Süddeutsche Zeitung\, Tablet\, and Tagesspiegel. She holds a PhD from the University of Toronto. \nProfessor Dan Stone\nProfessor Stone is Professor of Modern History and Director of the Holocaust Research Institute at the Royal Holloway University of London. He is a historian of ideas who works primarily on twentieth-century European history. His research interests include the history and interpretation of the Holocaust\, comparative genocide\, history of anthropology\, history of fascism\, the cultural history of the British Right and theory of history. \nWatch back now:

SUMMARY:Virtual Book Launch: The Armenians of Aintab
DESCRIPTION:The Wiener Holocaust Library was delighted to launch the publication of The Armenians of Aintab: The Economics of Genocide in an Ottoman Province to mark Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day 2021. \nThe author\, Ümit Kurt\, born and raised in Gaziantep\, Turkey\, was astonished to learn that his hometown once had a large and active Armenian community. The Armenian presence in Aintab\, the city’s name during the Ottoman period\, had not only been destroyed—it had been replaced. To every appearance\, Gaziantep was a typical Turkish city. \nKurt digs into the details of the Armenian dispossession that produced the homogeneously Turkish city in which he grew up. In particular\, he examines the population that gained from ethnic cleansing. Records of land confiscation and population transfer demonstrate just how much new wealth became available when the prosperous Armenians—who were active in manufacturing\, agricultural production\, and trade—were ejected. Although the official rationale for the removal of the Armenians was that the group posed a threat of rebellion\, Kurt shows that the prospect of material gain was a key motivator of support for the Armenian genocide among the local Muslim gentry and the Turkish public. Those who benefited most—provincial elites\, wealthy landowners\, state officials\, and merchants who accumulated Armenian capital—in turn\, financed the nationalist movement that brought the modern Turkish republic into being. The economic elite of Aintab was thus reconstituted along both ethnic and political lines. \nThe Armenians of Aintab draws on primary sources from Armenian\, Ottoman\, Turkish\, British\, and French archives\, as well as memoirs\, personal papers\, oral accounts\, and newly discovered property-liquidation records. Together they provide an invaluable account of genocide at ground level. \nAbout the speakers:\nÜmit Kurt is Polonsky Fellow at the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute and an Australian Research Council Fellow. He is the author of several books in Turkish and English\, including The Spirit of the Laws: The Plunder of Wealth in the Armenian Genocide. \nStefan Ihrig is a professor of history at the University of Haifa and Director of the Haifa Center of German & European Studies. He works on various aspects of European and Middle Eastern history with an interest in the media as well as political and social discourses. He is co-editor of the Journal of Holocaust Research. \nWatch back now:
