Holocaust remembrance has attained an ever-greater place in the consciousness of people across Europe and around the world. But memorialization inevitably entails a selective focus and is accompanied by a marginalization and even erasure of other traces of a disturbing past. This lecture explores some of the diverse and complex legacies of Nazi persecution.
