Museum Studies Program, Museums at Noon

Burns Park

This lunch-hour talk tackles an uncomfortable question: why have Holocaust museums largely escaped the decolonization movement? Scholar Erica Lehrer examines how these institutions, despite their social justice missions, remain entangled with state power and inherited biases. Expect rigorous debate, not easy answers.
