Marion Public Library is proud to welcome Brad Wilkening and his presentation "Lessons of the Holocaust".

Marion Public Library is proud to welcome Brad Wilkening and his presentation "Lessons of the Holocaust".

In his presentation, Brad Wilkening will use historical accounts and survivors' stories to show why the genocide of World War II is more relevant than ever, and how this terrible period in human history should be used to build a more compassionate and kind world and community.

Brad Wilkening is an Iowa native with a background in education. He developed a high school Holocaust course after attending a program at the Illinois Holocaust Museum, and later deepened his expertise at Columbia University in New York, and with the Jewish Foundation for the Righteous in New Jersey. Since joining the Iowa Commission on Holocaust Education in 2014, he has shared his Holocaust presentation with many schools and libraries across the state. Libraries that have hosted Brad have nothing but good things to say about his presentations.
