Genocide Denial - BIG SONIA, A documentary film directed by Leah Warshawski and Todd Soliday

2020 Holocaust and Genocide Lecture Series

Please join us on Tuesday, January 28th for a screening of the documentary film, Big Sonia. The film features Sonia Warshawski who at 94 still speaks publicly about her wartime experiences during the Holocaust. Sonia’s son Morrie Warshawski will be joining us.

“At a time when so many of the voices of Holocaust survivors have been stilled, Sonia Warshawski's message of courage, resilience and connection is an important reminder of the persistence of the human spirit." Myrna Goodman, Director of the Center for the Study of Holocaust and Genocide.

“This is an important movie. It’s a story of love and healing but also one with the strong message that we should never forget the Holocaust, especially with the increase of antisemitism that is rising in this country." Brian Wilson, Coordinator of the university’s Jewish Studies Program.

All lectures are free and open to the public. The complete lecture series schedule is available online at: http://www.sonoma.edu/holocaust/
