European Antisemitism from its Origins to the Holocaust & The Path to Nazi Genocide

In this presentation, Mr. Holden will be using DVDs created by the USHMM in Washington, DC. He will discuss the origins of antisemitism throughout history leading up to today and the fiercely antisemitic path that the Nazis took on their way to attempting to eradicate the European Jews. We will also discuss the rise of Antisemitism in the U.S. and its obvious continuance in the 21st century.

When we watched the Neo-Nazis marching in Charlottesville in 2017, it’s important to know where this awful prejudice is sourced. Sections of the film, “The U.S. and the Holocaust” will be shown and discussed for historical clarity.

Mr. Robert Holden is a retired Ocean City Gifted/talented teacher (ret.-2006) and retired Senior Adjunct Professor of History, teaching WC 1, WC 2, and his own created Holocaust and Genocide Studies Course at ACCC’s Cape May County campus. (ret. -2016)

He is on the board of the SJHC, the HPSUT and the Seaville Friends Meeting.

He has published several secondary history curriculum guides and two books, Upper Township and its Ten Villages and Visas to Shanghai (about the Chinese diplomat, Feng-Shan Ho who saved thousands of Viennese Jews during the Holocaust by writing them exit visas), both of which are available to check out from the library.
