Holocaust Education Alive and Well in South Florida
Craig Weiner recently gave a tour to students of the Holocaust Reflection and Resource Center, which he and his wife Barbara founded at Nova Southeastern University.
For the Weiner’s, Holocaust education is a mission – and a necessity. An April study conducted by the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany found 22 percent of millennials hadn’t heard of the Holocaust. 41 percent were unaware that 6-million Jews were murdered. Two thirds were not aware that Auschwitz was a Nazi death camp in Poland.

The center, located in NSU’s Alvin Sherman Library, contains historical artifacts from the 1930’s and 40’s, much of it donated from all over the world.
