Good morning,

 

While not a memoir, you may be interested in a project that we worked with from the U.S. Holocaust Museum called History Unfolded https://newspapers.ushmm.org/.  We and other “citizen historians” submitted newspaper articles found in our historic papers for inclusion in this online database.  While some articles are news stories, others are opinion pieces that give you the sentiment of the time.  There are also lesson plans on the site https://newspapers.ushmm.org/about/teacher-resources.  Hope this is helpful.

Stephanie,

Here is a bibliography - note it includes nonfiction and fiction as well. -Barb Lyons

(hopefully the "anyone with a link can view" is working!)

Hello again, Librarian Pod -

 

What a great resource we are for each other!  The title I was looking for is indeed out of print, so I'm going to buy several titles for teachers to preview, then maybe, just maybe, we can get class sets of several, and the honors classes can pick a memoir and do the associated work and turn it into teacher A, B, or C even if their main class teacher is teacher D! Would build in choice, and teachers would be grading etc on their favorite memoir - what fun.

 

Does anyone have a fave list for Holocaust memoirs - for honors World Hist to share?

 

Thanks for all the suggestions yesterday - it was a great help.
