Holocaust Historian Attacked By Polish Politician As He Speaks On Polish Complicity During WW2.

On May 30, a Polish-Canadian historian of the Holocaust at the University of Ottawa, Jan Grabowski, was scheduled to deliver a lecture in Warsaw, Poland about Polish complicity in the Holocaust and the Polish government’s attempts to whitewash its history. But Grabowski was unable to deliver his lecture because a Polish politician with a history of making antisemitic comments, Grzegorz Braun, physically disrupted the event and prevented Grabowski from sharing his research.

With the number of Holocaust survivors decreasing, the need has never been greater to preserve their memories accurately and not let the history of the Holocaust get whitewashed to benefit Nazi collaborators.
