The Stanford University Charles Michael Lecture

Edward Rothstein, Cultural Critic-at-Large, New York Times

How are newly constructed Holocaust museums, especially in Europe, shaping the memory and meaning of the Holocaust? New York Times Cultural Critic-At-Large Edward Rothstein joins USC Shoah Foundation Institute's Executive Director Stephen Smith for a conversation on the ways in which these buildings – their forms and contents – are shaping the historical perception and present-day relevance of the Holocaust.

Free.
