About this episode

Jessica Silverman discusses the lessons not learned from the Holocaust and the recurring patterns of indifference and dehumanization.

Lead Holocaust educator and author Jessica Silverman joins us to ask a haunting question: what haven’t we learned from the Holocaust, even now? Drawing on her family’s survivor story and her work with Teach the Shoah, Jessica challenges the way we remember, the dangers of forgetting, and the subtle ways indifference and dehumanization creep back into our world. If we mean “never again,” why do the same patterns keep returning—and what would it take to finally break them?
