South Florida Holocaust survivors
The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum hosted its 2025 South Florida Dinner on Jan. 21 at Boca West Country Club, commemorating the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. More than 650 attendees, including two dozen Holocaust survivors, learned how the Museum is reaching new generations with the timely lessons of this history, including the dangers of unchecked antisemitism and other forms of hate, to inspire action today.
Featured speaker Dr. Rebecca Erbelding, a historian, curator and archivist at the Museum and the lead historian on the Museum’s special exhibition “Americans and the Holocaust,” provided a behind-the-scenes account of how she helped unlock the stories behind a unique Museum artifact, the Höcker album, which contains the last known photos of Auschwitz in operation.
