Preview | Simon Schama: The Holocaust, 80 Years On

32s

Amid rising antisemitism around the world and 80 years after the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, Simon Schama traces the historical road of horror that culminated in the death camps. From Lithuania to Poland, the Netherlands and, finally, Auschwitz, Schama confronts the enormity of the Holocaust as both historian and 80-year-old Jew, to understand how it happened and in the hopes of never again.

Funding for SIMON SCHAMA: THE HOLOCAUST, 80 YEARS ON was provided in part by the Ford Foundation, The Polonsky Foundation, The Sylvia A. and Simon B. Poyta Programming Endowment to Fight Antisemitism, Patti Askwith Kenner, The David Berg Foundation, Georgette Bennett and Leonard Polonsky, and public television viewers.
