Confronting Hatred: 70 Years after the Holocaust
This hour-long special brings together a broad range of voices to talk about racism, antisemitism, and the ways in which hatred can grow. Interviews were drawn from the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum’s Voices on Antisemitism series. We hear from a former skinhead, an imam, a prosecutor for the Rwandan genocide trials; people speaking from many perspectives, including heavy metal singer David Draiman, filmmaker Errol Morris, and Holocaust survivor and Nobel Peace Prize recipient Elie Wiesel. The documentary examines the ways in which the Holocaust continues to inform contemporary discussions about hate speech, propaganda, and human rights. We hear people confronting hatred in their lives, their communities, and sometimes in their own hearts.
