The Americans and the Holocaust traveling exhibition, soon to be on display at the Northwest Reno Library, addresses important themes in American history, including Americans' responses to refugees, war and genocide in the 1930s and '40s. This exhibition will challenge the commonly held assumptions that Americans knew little and did nothing about the Nazi persecution and murder of Jews as the Holocaust unfolded.
In conjunction with the exhibit, events are planned for all ages to explore the topics presented in the exhibit. Join us for the opening reception on Wednesday, July 12, 5-7 pm. |
