Echoes from the Past: The Lives of Jewish Children During the Holocaust in Ukraine

UNCG's Moore Humanities and Research Administration (MHRA) Building 1111 Spring Garden St, Greensboro

What did it mean to be a Jewish child during the Holocaust in Nazi-occupied Ukraine? How did Nazi genocidal policies target Jewish children, leading to the deaths of 1.5 million young people? Dr. Nataliiia Ivchyk will discuss how children were not passive victims but rather individuals with unique experiences according to their age, family situation, and environment. She also will address how Jewish children of the Holocaust are remembered in Ukraine today.
