Holocaust Remembrance: Why Here? Why Now?
The Citizens Commission on Human Rights of Nashville (CCHR Nashville) is sponsoring a discussion about the Holocaust on January 28, 2022.
In observance of International Day for Holocaust Remembrance, the Nashville Chapter of Citizens Commission on Human Rights (CCHR Nashville) has organized a special discussion to confront a serious topic: anti-Semitism in today’s Tennessee.
The Holocaust took place in Europe over 75 years ago. What does this have to do with us, here and now? Why do we commemorate it in Tennessee, over 75 years later? What is it that makes this so important and so relevant?
The event Holocaust Remembrance: Why Here? Why Now? will be held on January 28 at 7:00pm in the Church of Scientology community hall, 1130 8th Ave South, Nashville, TN 37203. It is free and open to the general public.
Hear from special guest speaker Dr. Adam Bronstone, Director of Planning and Israel Partnerships for the Jewish Federation & Jewish Foundation of Nashville and Middle Tennessee.
Dr. Bronstone holds a doctorate from the University of Hull in Britain, with a specialization in International Relations. He has written several books with respect to transatlantic issues including political economics and security. His current research revolves around issues of place and identity as they relate to modern-day technologically connected world that we live in. Dr. Bronstone has taught at several universities in Britain, Canada and the United States.
Following Dr. Bronstone’s address, Rev. Brian Fesler will host a discussion, including the opportunity for questions from the audience.
CCHR is known as an advocate for human rights, especially as relates to patients’ rights in the field of mental health. It has long fought to restore basic human rights to the field of mental health, such as full informed consent regarding the medical legitimacy of psychiatric diagnosis, the risks of psychiatric treatments, the right to all available medical alternatives and the right to refuse any treatment considered harmful.
