The Emil A. and Jenny Fish Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies Mission Events On the Anniversary of October 7 We present a limited issue of Prism to mark October 7th. It contains works written by our students who accompanied us on our study abroad in Israel in July 2024. This issue is intentionally spare and brief in recognition of and respect for those who feel that a commemoration is not appropriate while this war is ongoing and our hostages are still not home. The families and friends of those kidnapped and those murdered have not had a chance to grieve; this atrocity is not over for them. The war is not over for Israel. October 7th, with its aftermath, is not over for any of us. And as Ayala Metzger, the daughter-in-law of murdered hostage Yoram Metzger, said, “During the Holocaust, there were no ceremonies.” Read Prism Now Help us continue to serve Holocaust educators at a time when the call to Remember is more critical than ever. Your donation to the Fish Center will allow us to foster the next generation of educators and scholars and keep the memories of the Holocaust’s victims and survivors alive.
