2006 Community Yom Hashoah Commemoration
The legacy of the Nuremberg Trials will be the featured presentation
at the 2006 Community Yom Hashoah Commemoration on Sunday April
23rd, to be held at the Friedman Events Center in Santa Rosa.
In the year of the 60th Anniversary of the Nuremberg Trials, presenter
Lawrence Raful, Dean and Professor of Law at Touro Law School, Huntington,
NY, will examine the effects of the trials on international law,
and especially why they have not stemmed the tide of genocides around
the world since then. Prof. Raful was the director of the 2005 Conference
on the Nuremberg War Trials in July this year in Nuremberg, Germany.
Please mark the change of venue this year from Sonoma State University
to the Friedman Events Center in Santa Rosa. However, the Commemoration
remains a community program and collaboration of the Jewish Community
Agency, the Alliance for the Study of the Holocaust at Sonoma State
University, and the Jewish congregations of Sonoma County.
