# Event Details - **Event Name**: Resisters: How Ordinary Jews Fought Persecution in Hitler's Germany - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 26 Jan, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Mon, 26 Jan, 2026 at 08:00 pm - **Event Description**: Join us for International Holocaust Remembrance Day with Dr. Wolf Gruner, Founding Director of the USC Center for Advanced Genocide ResearchAbout this EventBetween 1933 and 1945, hundreds of Jews resisted persecution in Nazi Germany and annexed Austria, including public protest and taking pictures to document persecution, despite being often heavily punished by the regime. The fact that so many German Jewish women and men of all ages, educations, and professions resisted obliterates the common view of Jewish passivity under Nazi persecution. In commemoration of the 81st anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp in Nazi-occupied Poland, Dr. Wolf Gruner presents a new and broader definition of resistance including five different kinds of individual acts, and a large set of new sources, ranging from police and court records to survivor testimonies and photographs. Dr. Gruner holds the Shapell-Guerin Chair in Jewish Studies and is Professor of History at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles since 2008. He is the Founding Director of the USC Dornsife Center for Advanced Genocide Research since 2014.The event is organized by the Harriet & Kenneth Kupferberg Holocaust Center (KHC) and is underwritten by the Eva Bobrow Memorial Fund. It is co-sponsored by the Center for the Study of Genocide and Human Rights at Rutgers University; the Reiff Center for Human Rights and Conflict Resolution at Christopher Newport University; the Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center in White Plains; the Ray Wolpow Institute for the Study of the Holocaust, Genocide, and Crimes Against Humanity at Western Washington University; the Holocaust, Genocide & Interfaith Education Center at Manhattan University; the Institute for Genocide and Mass Atrocity Prevention at Binghamton University; the Genocide Studies Program at Yale University; the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Salem State University; and the Sam and Frances Fried Holocaust and Genocide Academy at University of Nebraska at Omaha.**To attend in person: The event is free and open to all, but registration ahead of time is required and visitors must show ID upon entering the campus at Queensborough Community College (QCC).

Established in 1983, it was one of the first research archives devoted to the Holocaust on the East Coast. Our facilities include a permanent exhibition about the Holocaust as well as a rotating gallery space, and in 2011 we were the recipients of a challenge grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH).Our current exhibit, Survivance and Sovereignty on Turtle Island: Engaging with Contemporary Native American Art, is the first time 16 Native American and Indigenous artists are showcasing their works about mass atrocities and genocide at a US Holocaust center (on view through May 22, 2020). We offer approximately twenty public programs and special events for Holocaust survivors, as well as host over 150+ tours reaching over 2,000 students and community members annually." } ] } ] ```
