Event Description
“I pray you to believe what I have said about Buchenwald. I reported what I saw and heard, but only part of it. For most of it, I have no words. If I have offended you by this rather mild account of Buchenwald, I'm not in the least sorry....” - CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow, April 15, 1945
Join us for a powerful program exploring the role of American forces in the liberation of Nazi concentration camps during the final months of World War II. Through historical accounts, photographs, and survivor testimonies, historian and educator Rick Acritelli will examine how American soldiers confronted the horrors of the Holocaust and had the ability to destroy Hitler’s Third Reich in order to restore peace and stability to the people of Europe.
