one could say that it is out of
control.
"The Jewish perception of
that history is not necessarily
shared." To retain a true
sense of the Holocaust, he be-
lieves, "we must actively help
to shape it. We have to try to
reach out and not
parochialize." Curricula such
as this, he says, well ad-
ministered and implemented
with care, can be particularly
effective.
"There is probably no more
important thing that we can
do to help future generations
to understand the impact of
the Holocaust and its mes-
sage for the future than to
continuously educate our
young people," agrees Leon
Cohan, president of the
Jewish Community Council.
"This effort is an extremely
important part of the total
picture." ❑

THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
make them really come alive
and show even more vividly
the dynamics of Jewish life
and culture in Europe before
the war.
He also envisions an au-
ditorium, and expanded li-
brary space to house the
HMC's 8,000 books.
The library is a sore point
at the HMC. Together with
the archive of film, mic-
rofiche and video material, it
was a much-applauded fea-
ture of the institution when
it opened two years ago. The
fact that it has not yet been
catalogued, and that so much
valuable research material,
including the recorded sur-
vivor testimony, is not yet
accessible, is a great disap-
pointment to many people in-
volved in scholarship and re-
search.
"It is frustrating," agrees
Rosenzveig, "but people just
do not realize that it takes
time to acquire and catalogue
so many books. It is a monu-
mental task. When it is
finished, it will be second to
none. And it is being used.
No one who comes and asks
to use it is turned away."
Nevertheless, the officially
unopened library continues to
epitomize, to some, a lack of
dynamism and leadership in
educational matters, and sev-
eral board members admit
that speedier and more
energetic implementation of
some of its plans would have
sent a stronger signal of its
educational commitment to
the community.
Holocaust education has
long been a community con-
cern. Many organizations, in-
cluding B'nai B'rith and the
Jewish Community Council,
made considerable efforts to
promote it before the HMC
was established and have
continued to do so. The
Jewish Community Council,
together with the Center for
the Study of the Child, is
currently developing a
Holocaust curriculum which
is to be introduced in Oak-
land County high schools this
year. The scheme has been
piloted in five area schools,
and received praise from Dr.
Dennis Klein, director of the
Anti-Defamation League In-
ternational Center for
.
Holocaust Education in New
York. He calls it "one of the
four or five outstanding cur-
ricula in the country." (See
story, Page 17.)
The curriculum makes ex-
tensive use of recorded sur-
vivor testimony, which the
project's developers had orig-
inally hoped to cull from the
recorded interviews held in
the HMC archives, many of
which were conducted by Dr.
Sidney Bolkosky, a co-author
of the curriculum. Permission
to do so, however, was denied
and new tapes had to be
made.
Aware that Holocaust - edu-
cation is an inexhaustible
and ongoing concern, com-
munity groups did not expect
to relax their efforts when
the HMC was completed, but
they did look to it to assume
a role of coordinating and
cooperative leadership and to
provide a focal point for
scholarship and research.
The Holocaust Memorial
Center has many educational
schemes in the planning
stages. It is planning to pub-
lish an encyclopedic dictio-
nary on the Holocaust, with
contributions edited by Prof.
David Wyman, author of The
Abandonment of the Jews.
The HMC is developing its
own school curriculum which,
says Rosenzveig, will be "the
best there is," and it is plan-
ning to increase the number
of lectures, films and confer-
ences it sponsors. These ac-
tivities have a dual purpose:
they increase public aware-
ness of the HMC and fill an
educational need.
"There are still many in
the Jewish community who
aren't even aware that it's
there," says Jackier, "in the
general community even
more. We need more educa-
tional outreach, and we are
trying to rectify that, as far
as our financial capabilities
allow."
Efforts to bring more pubiA
officials and administrators
to the HMC have already
shown results. A recent visit
from Detroit Schools Superin-
tendent Arthur Jefferson has
led to plans for regular visits
from Detroit schools, if trans-
