Shoah Scholar Speaks
On Mass Murderers
Author and Holocaust expert Thomas
Kuhne will speak on "The Murderers
Among Us: How We Elude and Confront
Holocaust Perpetrators:' He'll appear at 2
p.m. Sunday, March 23, at the Holocaust
Memorial Center, Zekelman Family
Campus in Farmington Hills.
He will explore and assess popular
fantasies about and scholarly insights
into the pathology and the ordinariness
of Hitler's mass murderers, showing that
the Holocaust can be explained only if we
render account to the full diversity of the
people who committed it.
Kuhne is Strassler Family Chair in the
Study of Holocaust History at the Strassler
Center for Holocaust and Genocide
Studies and professor of history at Clark
University in Worcester, Mass.
The event is presented by Wayne State
University's College of Liberal Arts and
Sciences and the Guy Stern Endowment in
Exile and Holocaust Studies.

Empty Bowls is an international grassroots
effort to fight hunger where individuals
create handcrafted bowls. The cost to par-
ticipate is $5.
To participate in the Kindness Super Bowl
Project at the JCC in Oak Park Tuesday,
March 25, noon-3 p.m., call (248) 967-4030.
Statistics show that one in eight Americans
struggle with food insecurity. Millions have
lost their jobs during the most recent reces-
sion, and the number of food stamp recipi-
ents has increased dramatically.
Empty Bowls events have taken place
across the U.S. and in at least a dozen
other countries. Many millions of dollars
have been raised and donated to hunger-
fighting organizations.
