Disseminating the message of the Holocaust for the Digital Generation

In conjunction with the Gathering the Voices exhibition, Angela Shapiro (Glasgow Caledonian University) will give a public lecture on “Disseminating the message of the Holocaust for the Digital Generation” in the Project Room followed by a drinks reception from 6.30pm to 7.30pm.

The Gathering the Voices exhibition illustrates with words and images the experiences of survivors of Nazi persecution who sought refuge in Scotland in the 1930s and 40s. These survivor testimonies can be heard on the website www.gatheringthevoices.com. The interviewees discuss their lives and earliest memories of life in Europe, the horrors of Nazism, their experiences of migration and gradual integration into Scottish society.

On display from 21 March to 1st April 2016 on the 3rd floor of 50 George Square, in the School of Literatures, Languages and Cultures at the University of Edinburgh
