Campus Illumination and Panel Discussion Honors Holocaust Remembrance Day

Historian Konrad H. Jarausch, Ph.D., Raises Awareness to Complicity and Moral Responsibility

As dusk fell over the New York Medical College campus on January 27, the campus illuminated in a yellow light. The College joined Touro University, Westchester Medical Center, and other institutions across the state participating in New York State’s Yellow Lights initiative—a visible act of remembrance marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The lighting ceremony was accompanied by "The Reluctant Accomplice: An International Holocaust Remembrance Day Event,” which examined how ordinary individuals become complicit in mass violence and the urgent relevance of those lessons today. More than 275 registered participants—virtually and in person— came together to honor the memory of six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust and the millions of other victims of Nazi persecution.
