News and Events

On April 15th, 2020 The State and Free Times will have the 2020 Holocaust Remembered supplement "Holocaust - 75 years Later, What have we Learned?"

Here is a list of workshops, events, and conferences in which the SC Holocaust Council participates or supports. Some are held only for designated attendees, but many are free and open to the public.

We have new video resources regarding the importance of Holocaust education. The videos can be found under "Education" and by clicking on the link titled "Importance of Holocaust Education". The videos include interviews with Robert Caslen (President of USC), Senator Katrina Shealy, Molly Spearman (Superintendent of Education), and Mayor Steve Benjamin.

International Holocaust Remembrance Day was designated by The United Nations General Assembly to commemorate the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1945. On this day, we honor the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and millions of other victims of Nazism and recommit ourselves to developing educational programs that help prevent future genocides.
