It paved the way for the crescendo of events that would eventually culminate in the Holocaust. In the current climate of increasing intolerance and bigotry, it is more important than ever that we learn the lessons of history to prevent future genocides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In tribute to the six million people whose voices were silenced forever, Ashkenazi will perform with a restored violin that survived the Holocaust and has been refurbished by Amnon Weinstein in Israel. The concert is the first of its kind in Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This event is organized in co-operation with Kehillat Beth Israel Synagogue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Media Contact<br>\n<\/strong>Steven Reid<br>\nMedia Relations Officer<br>\n杏吧原创 University<br>\n613-520-2600, ext. 8718<br>\n613-265-6613<br>\n<a href=\"mailto:Steven_Reid3@杏吧原创.ca\">Steven_Reid3@杏吧原创.ca<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>杏吧原创 Flipboard account:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/flipboard.com\/@carletonstories\/carleton-stories-0gbu905my\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/flipboard.com\/@carletonstories\/carleton-stories-0gbu905my<\/a><br>\n<strong>Follow us on Twitter:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/Cunewsroom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.twitter.com\/Cunewsroom<\/a><br>\n<strong>Need an expert?<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>Go to:<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.carleton.ca\/newsroom\/experts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.carleton.ca\/newsroom\/experts<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>杏吧原创 University\u2019s Centre for Holocaust Education and Scholarship will launch Holocaust Education Month with a special event in commemoration of the 80th anniversary of Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass.
