Campus shares in #TogetherWeRemember

Dr. Carol Dusdieker (center) and music students (L-R) Sam Stohlman, Kristina Kamm, Cameron Lyons and Haley Schreiner conducted a moving closing ceremony for #TogetherWeRemember.

 

As a call to action and an extension of the Lichtman-Behm Genocide Lecture Series, more than 75 members of the Heidelberg community participated in #TogetherWeRemember, a 24-hour remembrance event to commemorate the victims of genocide from the 20th and 21st centuries on April 10-11. #TogetherWeRemember is a global day of remembrance and activism in honor of victims of genocide through coordinated name readings in communities across the world and on social media. Students, faculty and staff gathered in The University Commons to read from the Archive of Names, the first of its kind to centralize names of victims and rescuers from different genocides. In all, members of the Heidelberg community read nearly 50,000 names during the event. David Estrin, grandson of Jimmy Lichtman, who spoke during last fall’s Lichtman-Behm Genocide Lecture Series about his organization called Coalition for Preserving Memory, has been instrumental in helping Heidelberg to organize this reading.
