We are over half-way through a six-week program we created based on our book entitled, "The Next Generation's Legacy of the Holocaust". This educational series is sponsored through the online programming arm of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI). Each of the weekly sessions includes different panels of authors presenting their personal reflections and stories related to a major theme, with Rita Benn, Ruth Wade and Joy Wolfe Ensor taking turns serving as the moderators. Participants have the opportunity to expand on their learning by visiting a syllabus we developed that lists a variety of resources related to each topic. We are very excited that 35 participants from 14 different OLLI schools spanning 10 states have enrolled. The committment of participants to attend each week has been amazing, and equally so, has been their level of engagement. Week after week, they return listening respectfully, asking thoughtful questions, sharing their own personal stories, and showing their appreciation. We are very grateful to online OLLI for this opportunity - one that enriches both our presenters and OLLI participants.
