    The Holocaust Museum Houston presents a Holocaust Museum Houston Lecture: Erased: Vanishing Traces of Jewish Galicia in Present-Day Ukraine, featuring Omer Bartov, Thursday, September 22, 7:00pm-8:30pm, in the museum's Albert and Ethel Herzstein Theater.

    This poignant travelogue reveals the complete erasure of the Jews and their removal from public memory in the service of a fiercely aggressive Ukranian nationalism. Omer Bartov, a leading Holocaust scholar, discovers that he must learn to understand the complex interethnic relationships and conflicts that have existed for centuries.

    In this free public lecture, he will recreate the histories of the vibrant Jewish and Polish communities who once lived there and describe what is left today following their brutal and complete destruction.

    Bartov is the John P. Birkelund Distinguished Professor of European History at Brown University.
