The "Courage to Remember" Poster Series

With nearly 200 original photographs, many never before seen by the general public, The Courage to Remember poster series offers compelling, new insights into the Holocaust. The story unfolds through four major themes:

  1. Nazi Germany, 1933-1938
  2. Moving Toward the "Final Solution", 1939-1941
  3. Annihilation in Nazi-occupied Europe, 1941-1945
  4. Liberation - Building New Lives

This powerful 40-panel visual narrative on the Holocaust is available in a series of full- color posters, which can be used as an educational display.

This series, unique in range and scope, is ideal for commemorative or educational use in community centers, high schools and universities, libraries, synagogues and churches, and by other interested organizations and individuals. The Wiesenthal Center has created a powerful and comprehensive educational tool which can be used as the centerpiece for special events, or as a visual curriculum for educators.

If a patron would like to check out any of the CTR panels, please fill out a form (found under the bulletin board) and leave on Kadie's desk. She will then reach out to the patron to organize the pickup.
