How Do You Say "Genocide" in Yiddish?

Speaker: Dr. James Loeffler, University of Virginia

Program Series: Rabbi Joshua O. Haberman Distinguished Scholar Series

Location: Ohr Kodesh Congregation, Chevy Chase, MD

Dr. Loeffler makes the argument that the concept of a "genocide law" predates the Holocaust, and is derived from Lemkin's forgotten role as a leader in the interwar Polish Zionist movement.
