Randolph Braham - A Postmortem of the Holocaust in Hungary June 20, 2012

One of the world's foremost authorities on the Holocaust in Hungary, Randolph L. Braham is Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Political Science at City College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, where he also serves as director of the Rosenthal Institute for Holocaust Studies. In his lecture, Dr. Braham will address the destruction of Hungarian Jewry on the eve of Allied victory, a time when the secrets of Auschwitz were already known to world leaders. He will examine both the Hungarian and German authorities' strategies and Jewish leaders' attitudes and reactions, and analyze how this unthinkable catastrophe became reality.
