UPCOMING EVENTS

Wednesday, July 12, 1:00pm (Virtual)
July Book Club - "All the Broken Places," by John Boyne

This new novel tells a compelling story and asks some provocative questions: Is it ever too late to confront the past and make peace with it? Is it possible to shine a light on some of the darkest aspects of human nature and come to terms with them? This is a powerful story about secrets and atonement after Auschwitz, a tale of guilt and complicity but also about finding solace after a lifelong struggle to embrace one’s humanity and learn how to hold fast to it.

Please join us for a lively discussion led by Dr. Linda Burghardt, Scholar-in-Residence.

August Book Club - "Once We Were Home," by Jennifer Rosner

The Holocaust didn’t end when the camps were liberated, of course, and for three Jewish children sent into the arms of Christian strangers for safekeeping, the devastation of their stolen childhoods continues to rage within them even once the war was over.  Now they are free to search for home and family, but will they ever be able to determine where and to whom they truly belong?

Please join us for a lively discussion led by Dr. Linda Burghardt, Scholar-in-Residence.

A Charity Event: Chess in the Park Tournament on the Grounds of HMTC

CHESSanity is teaming up with the Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County (HMTC) to launch a new initiative aimed at putting an end to hate and bigotry and promoting tolerance and respect for all people, regardless of their background or religion, as the way forward for future generations of humanity. We hope to inspire a new generation of leaders who are committed to creating a more just and equitable world.

As part of this partnership, CHESSanity has scheduled this event that promotes the values of tolerance and inclusivity, while also donating the proceeds to support HMTC's mission to educate the public about the Holocaust and its lessons for today.
