Jewish Photography of the Holocaust

Hosted By: Maven

Explore the poignant photography of Henryk Ross, chronicling Łódź Ghetto life; Faye Schulman’s WWII Jewish partisan resistance images; and Auschwitz Sonderkommandos’ grim work near gas chambers. Ross’s vital documentation confronts Holocaust denial, while Schulman captures Jewish resistance. The Sonderkommandos’ haunting photos offer an unprecedented view into Auschwitz’s horrors. This class challenges Nazi propaganda’s influence on Holocaust understanding, spotlighting 30,000 Jewish partisans, while delivering an intimate portrayal of history’s darkest chapter through these courageous photographers’ lenses.

Host

Maven

In March of 2020, as the pandemic took hold of our local communities and safer-at-home orders were issued, American Jewish University shifted the delivery of our adult education and community programming to digital formats. Dedicated to providing Jewish learning to our communities, AJU understood the importance of showcasing original content that was not only easily accessible, but also fostered a sense of connection amidst the isolation that many faced.
