Throughout April, those entering the Tallahassee Community College Workforce Development Building will see a series of educational display panels in the lobby. The exhibit is there in anticipation of Holocaust Remembrance Day on April 28th.
The multiple-panel display was set up by the Holocaust Education Resources Council (HERC), where Barbara Goldstein is the executive director. She hoped even casual passers-by might experience teachable moments from their encounter with the exhibit.

"To really learn how this escalated from the beginning and moved on through the collaboration of people around the world. So we learn about bystanders, and the victim and fighting back and resistance. So I hope everyone will come out to see it sometime in the next month."

Goldstein said the Holocaust Remembrance Day observance on April 28th will include speakers and a solemn reading of the names of Floridians who lost their lives in the course of the Holocaust.
