In commemoration of the annual International Holocaust Remembrance Day this year, a number of Winnipeg Jewish groups have partnered with the Italian community to focus on the plight of the Jews of Italy during the Holocaust.<\/p>\n

Numerous organizations will be participating, including Winnipeg\u2019s Freeman Family Foundation Holocaust Education Centre, B\u2019nai Brith Canada, The Dante Alighieri Society, which promotes Italian culture, and La Lupa di Roma Lodge, an Italian sisterhood group. Stan Carbone, the Italian vice-consul for Manitoba, and the Jewish Heritage Centre of Western Canada\u2019s program director are participating in the 2018 program, as well.<\/p>\n

Belle Jarniewski, chair of the Freeman Family Foundation Holocaust Education Centre, explained that each year, the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) rotates to a different country. This year, it will be chaired by Italy, in recognition of the 80th anniversary of the racial laws enacted against the Jews in that country.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince 2014, when I became a member of the Canadian delegation of the IHRA, commemorating International Holocaust Remembrance Day became an even higher priority for me,\u201d Jarniewski says.<\/p>\n

She explained that the IHRA is an intergovernmental body that promotes Holocaust education, remembrance and research around the world.<\/p>\n

Its 31 member countries appoint and send delegations to IHRA meetings, as well as academic and educational working groups. They also establish committees to address challenges in Holocaust education, anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial, the Roma genocide and other genocides.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is important to remember,\u201d Jarniewski adds, \u201cthat it was an initiative of Silvan Shalom, then head of the Israeli delegation to the United Nations that led to Resolution 60\/7, establishing Jan. 27 as a day to honour the memory of Holocaust victims. It also encourages the development of educational programs about Holocaust history, to help prevent future acts of genocide. It rejects any denial of the Holocaust and condemns all manifestations of religious intolerance, incitement, harassment or violence against persons or communities based on ethnic origin or religious belief.\u201d<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s series of programming \u2013 organized with the support of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, Congregation Shaarey Zedek, B\u2019nai Brith Canada and the Azrieli Foundation \u2013 begins with the screening of the film, The Garden of the Finzi-Continis, with an accompanying presentation by Jeremy Maron, who curated the Holocaust Gallery in the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. The film begins in 1938, when the racial laws stripped the rights of Jewish citizens. A story of romance plays out against the historical events.<\/p>\n

The film, Jarniewski points out, takes place in Ferrara, where the second Italian plenary of the IHRA will be taking place next fall. The first plenary will be held in Rome in the spring.<\/p>\n

In 1943, 183 Jews from Ferrara were rounded up and sent to the death camps. Only one survived.<\/p>\n

On Jan. 29, renowned University of Western Ontario Professor Alain Goldschlager will be delivering a lecture on Holocaust survivor and author Primo Levi at Congregation Shaarey Zedek in Winnipeg. Goldschlager, who was once president of B\u2019nai Brith Canada\u2019s League for Human Rights and is a recipient of the Chevalier de l\u2019Ordre des Palmes acad\u00e9miques award, has authored many books, the most recent of which is Les t\u00e9moignages \u00e9crits de la Shoah (Written Testimonies of the Shoah).<\/p>\n

On Jan. 30, Father Sam Argenziano of Winnipeg\u2019s Holy Rosary Parish Church will be speaking on the role the Catholic Church played during the Holocaust.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt will be interesting to hear Father Sam\u2019s take on Pius XII, whose wartime role has been considered controversial in books such as Hitler\u2019s Pope, among others,\u201d Jarniewski says.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope that many will come out to these three wonderful and interesting events.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
