SUMMARY:Censoring the Holocaust: How Books Shape Our View of a Painful Past
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr. Edna Friedberg \nEver since the 1940s\, books about the Holocaust have proven flashpoints. From early editions of The Diary of Anne Frank that omitted controversial passages to more recent attempts to ban the graphic memoir Maus from some American classrooms\, what we read about this difficult history often amplifies broader societal debates.  \nJoin us to look back at Holocaust literature (both fiction and non-fiction) and how its popularity shifts depending on time\, place\, and politics.
