Happy to announce the new Center for Holocaust and Human Rights @GratzCollege. It houses degrees in Holocaust and Genocide, Human Rights, and Interfaith Leadership. These fields are vital for training people to help stop violence, prejudice, and hatred in our world today.

The first two courses in the new MA in Human Rights at @GratzCollege this fall are “The Universal Declaration of Human Rights” and “African-Americans and Jews: Alliances and Struggles.” Should be an exciting beginning to the new program!
