Not Long Ago Nor Far Away: Lessons of the Holocaust for Today's Students

At a time when hate, intolerance and antisemitism are frequently in the news, 

Holocaust remembrance is more important than ever. 

On April 11th, the Concord-Carlisle Human Rights Council and the Town of Concord 

co-sponsored our annual Holocaust Memorial Observance. 

Johanna Glazer, A Social Studies teacher at Concord-Carlisle High School, 

gave a Zoom presentation about the importance of Holocaust education in our schools

and the need for remembrance. 

Johanna focused on the ways in which teaching and learning about the Holocaust 

can ultimately provide students with a greater understanding of democracy,

justice and the power of their own voices 

against oppression and injustice today. It was a memorable evening.
