Holocaust By Bullets: Ten Years of Investigation
Join us for a wine and cheese reception to open our special exhibition “Holocaust By Bullets: Ten Years of Investigation” with guest speaker Ewa Schaller.
“Holocaust by Bullets” features ten years of field investigations in the former Soviet Union by Yahad – In Unum. Yahad – In Unum, founded by French Catholic Priest Father Patrick Desbois, presents its painstaking research in a succinct yet approachable manner that enables the visitor to uncover, step‐by‐step, the crime committed against Jews and Roma by the Nazi killing units.
