World Without Genocide will mark the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz 7 to 9 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 28 in the auditorium at William Mitchell College of Law, 875 Summit Ave., St. Paul.
The event will feature the film Escape from Auschwitz, which includes archival footage of the camp and testimonies from survivors. Dr. Ellen Kennedy, executive director of World Without Genocide, will offer a talk titled “Prosecuting the Auschwitz Perpetrators.”
Attendees will also examine the establishment of the camp, the complicity of world organizations in its operation, and a bold attempt to raise awareness of the Nazis’ 1944 plan to exterminate all Hungarian Jews.
The event is open to the public and no reservations are necessary. Tickets are $10 for the general public, $5 for students and seniors, and free for Mitchell students.
