Recorded April 2021 The Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh is proud to partner with Tree of Life to present this special installation in our Conversations Series. In this conversation between friends, Dr. Lauren Bairnsfather engages with Ivy Schamis, former teacher at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas, and Rabbi Myers of Tree of Life synagogue. Over the course of the hour, they discuss the importance of Holocaust education for today; touch on their experiences of surviving horrific mass shootings; and share what they believe to be the answers to hate (as Rabbi says, the “h” word). Throughout, they share their sense of optimism in the goodness of humanity and the ability to make positive change.
Conversations Series: Ivy Schamis and Rabbi Hazzan Jeffrey Myers
