Our guest presenter will be Mark Weitzman, director of Government Affairs for the Simon Wiesenthal Center, chair of the Museums and Memorials Working Group of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), and the lead author of IHRA’s Working Definition of Holocaust Denial and Distortion.
