Wednesday Night Lecture Series May 8th Holocaust Memorial Observation with Special Guest Sue DaBaco Yom HaShoah / ‫יום השואה‬ Yom HaZikaron laShoah ve-laG'vurah ( ‫יום הזיכרון‬ " ;‫לשואה ולגבורה‬Holocaust and Heroism Remembrance Day"), known colloquially in Israel and abroad as Yom HaShoah ( )‫יום השואה‬and in English as Holocaust Remembrance Day, or Holocaust Day, is observed as Israel's day of commemoration for the approximately six million Jews and five million others who perished in the Holocaust as a result of the actions carried out by Nazi Germany and its accessories, and for the Jewish resistance in that period. In Israel, it is a national Memorial Day and public holiday. It is held on the 27th of Nisan (April/May), unless the 27th would be adjacent to Shabbat, in which case the date is shifted by a day.

May 29th The Danger of a Single Story Whether we're conscious of it or not, stories influence our understanding of other people and places. In July 2009, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie gave a TED talk presentation about her experiences as related to her concept of the 'single story.' Adichie describes the 'single story' as a narrative that presents only one perspective, repeated again and again. She asserts that the danger of the 'single story' is that it can result in perspectives based on stereotypes.
