SUMMARY:Speaker Series: World War II in Europe – A Photo Journal Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Note from Hunter Chaney\, Director of Marketing and Education:\n“Everyone should see this presentation. I was truly moved by Ed’s photo journal documenting his travels to many important sites and concentration camps in Europe. You will see what these places look like now and how they looked during the war. A stark reminder that this history was not that long ago.” \nThis Beyond Borders program is hosted by Foxborough resident and world traveler Ed Sweet who has been to all 50 U.S. states\, been to more than 140 countries and seen roughly 2\,800 cities on six continents\, and flown more than 7 million miles during his travels. His interest in World War II stems from being in a family with a very long military history\, having six family members that served in Europe in 1944-45\, from having lived in Germany for 11 years\, and from his extensive work travels through Europe for 30-45 weeks per year for 40 years. \nEd’s compelling photo journal presentation blends powerful archival photographs from the war with present-day images captured during his extensive travels for work throughout the continent.  It will showcase key sites and commemorative memorials associated with the growth of Nazism in Germany\, Adolph Hitler’s rise to power; the White Rose anti-Nazi student resistance; the Holocaust and other crimes against humanity; Jewish isolation ghettos; transit\, concentration\, execution and POW camps; Einsatzgruppen mobile massacres; and key battle sites and military cemeteries throughout Europe. Join us as we explore these sites through the lens of then and now.
