SUMMARY:Telling Cuentos Student Workshop
DESCRIPTION:This workshop institutes a cultural aspect to the writing of historical stories that challenges the traditional linear and formalist approaches to writing “history”. Following the influence of Lin Manuel-Miranda’s Hamilton\, this workshop will work toward being able to incorporate cultural\, family\, and personal stories into a new way of writing prose or poetry. \nChristopher Carmona is the author of El Rinche: The Ghost Ranger of the Rio Grande\, which was a finalist for the 2019 Best Young Adult Novel for the Texas Institute of Letters. Currently\, he is working on finishing this series of YA novels. Book Two is out now. His short story collection\, The Road to Llorona Park\, won the 2016 NACCS Tejas Best Fiction Award and was listed as one of the top 8 Latinx books in 2016 by NBC News. He has a chapter in Reverberations of Racial Violence: Critical Reflections on Borderlands History discussing intergenerational trauma for Mexican Americans in the Rio Grande Valley. \nAs an educational activist\, Carmona serves as a board member of the national award-winning organization\, Refusing To Forget\, which researches and promotes the history of violence against Mexican Americans and Latinos in the early 20th Century and beyond. Currently he serves as the Chair of the NACCS Tejas Foco Committee on Implementing MAS in PreK-12 Education in Texas. He was a leader in getting the TEKS-based Mexican American Studies High School Course approved by the Texas State Board of Education\, which is the only State Board approved Mexican American Studies course in the United States to date. He served on Responsible Ethnic Studies Textbook committee that was awarded the “float like a butterfly\, sting like a bee” award for excellence in educational leadership from the Mexican American School Board Association (MASBA). \n			\n				Register

SUMMARY:Free Admission Day in honor of Walter Kase
DESCRIPTION:Museum admission fees will be waived on Thursday\, May 5\, 2022 in honor of Holocaust survivor Walter Kase\, z”l. \nWhen Germany invaded Poland in September 1939\, it soon became clear that Walter’s family’s lives would never be the same again. At the end of 1940\, Walter\, his parents and his sister\, Rysia\, were herded into a Jewish ghetto. One day in 1941\, the ghetto residents were told to gather in the city square. There\, in front of her family\, Rysia was lined up with other young children and shot to death. Twelve-year-old Walter was sent with his father to the labor camp of Pionki\, later to Auschwitz and Sosnowiec\, and finally to Mauthausen and two of its sub-camps. \nWalter and his father were liberated by the 71st Infantry Division of the United States Army on May 5\, 1945. Taken to a hospital to recuperate\, Walter regained his strength\, but his father succumbed a month later. Walter made his way back to Poland\, where he was reunited with his mother. In 1947\, Walter came to the United States\, settling in Kansas City\, Missouri. There\, he finished his schooling\, started a career in sales and was drafted and served proudly during the Korean War. Walter was able to bring his mother to the United States\, where she settled in Washington\, DC. \nWalter moved to Houston\, where he established a successful import business. He was active in Jewish causes\, sitting on the boards of the Anti-Defamation League and Holocaust Museum Houston. The Anti-Defamation League established a Teachers’ Award in Walter’s name\, and he was the first recipient of the St. Augustine Award from St. Thomas University in recognition of his life-changing impact on others. \nIn addition\, Harris County Public Health will be onsite at Holocaust Museum Houston all day\, administering the COVID-19 vaccine. \n\nPfizer (ages 5 & up)\, Moderna (ages 18 & up) and J&J (ages 18 & up) vaccines available\nFirst\, second and booster doses available\nNo Photo ID is required\, but those receiving 2nd and booster doses must bring their vaccination card with them.\nInsurance is not required.\nChildren between the age of 5 and 17 must have a consent form signed on the day of the vaccination.\nWalk-ins will be accepted.\n\n			\n				Register

SUMMARY:Leveraging RBG’s Lasting Legacy to Confront Today’s Criminal Justice Challenges
DESCRIPTION:This event is available to attend either in person at the Museum or virtually on Zoom. \nJoin Holocaust Museum Houston for a moderated panel discussion with local criminal justice leaders on the impact of RBG’s legacy on current criminal justice challenges. \nJustice Ruth Bader Ginsburg left a rich legacy on criminal justice questions that deeply implicate our shared values and the protection of lives and liberties. Our nation\, our state\, and our greater Houston community continues to grapple with vexing questions at the intersection of safety and justice that Justice Ginsburg addressed in her pioneering work as a public interest lawyer and jurist\, including the death penalty\, indigent defense\, pretrial detention\, and the role of parole and second-look policies. At a time of both rising homicides and a burgeoning movement to bring more significant equity and due process to our justice system\, this diverse panel will share their perspectives on how Justice Ginsburg’s jurisprudence and philosophy inform current efforts to advance justice in Harris County and beyond. \nModeratorMarc Levin\, Chief Policy Counsel\, Council on Criminal Justice \nPanelists \n\nAlex Bunin\, Harris County Public Defender\nThe Honorable Marc Carter\, Schaffer\, Carter\, Kennedy & Mayes\, TSU Regent and Former Judge\nGary M. Polland\, Defense Attorney & Former Chair\, Harris County GOP\nProfessor Sandra Guerra Thompson\, UH Law Center\n\nSpecial thanks to PNC Bank for generously supporting the Museum’s Notorious RBG Lecture and Film Series. The event will be hosted in person. Admission is free and open to the public\, but registration is required \n			\n				Register

SUMMARY:Free Admission Day in honor of Stefi Altman
DESCRIPTION:Museum admission will be waived on Sunday\, May 15\, 2022 in honor of Holocaust survivor Stefi Altman\, z”l. \nStefi Altman was just 13 years old when Germany overran Poland in September 1939. Soon after\, Stefi’s two older brothers were arrested and sent to a labor camp\, and Nazi soldiers brutuall beat her fater and drove the family from their house. They fled to Stefi’s grandfather’s farm\, taking shelter in the barn. \nThe family remained together until 1940\, when Stefi was sent to the labor camp of Jastkov. Later she was sent to Treblinka and Majdanek. Next\, she was sent to the camp of Dorohucza. Although Dorohucza had neither gas chambers nor crematoria of the other camps\, death always hovered nearby. Like Stefi\, many of the inmates were only half alive by the time they got there. At the end of 1943\, Stefi discovered that her sister\, Kayla\, had also been sent to Dorohucza. But relief soon turned to horror when Kayla was brutally murdered.  \nStefi managed\, against all odds\, to escape Dorohucza. For the remainder of the war\, she hid in a coffin-like space underneath a barn that belonged to a sympathetic Polish farmer. After she was liberated by the Soviets\, she learned that her entire family had been murdered. \nStefi Altman\, z”l\, passed away in December 2017. \nIn addition\, Harris County Public Health will be onsite at Holocaust Museum Houston all day\, administering the COVID-19 vaccine. \n\nPfizer (ages 5 & up)\, Moderna (ages 18 & up) and J&J (ages 18 & up) vaccines available\nFirst\, second and booster doses available\nNo Photo ID is required\, but those receiving 2nd and booster doses must bring their vaccination card with them.\nInsurance is not required.\nChildren between the age of 5 and 17 must have a consent form signed on the day of the vaccination. \nWalk-ins will be accepted.\n\n			\n				Register

SUMMARY:Who Owns History? Centering Descendants in the Politics of Preservation

StephensFounder and Chair of the Chattahoochee Brick Company Coalition. \nDr. Antoinette JacksonProfessor and Chair of the department of Anthropology at the University of South Florida (USF) in Tampa and Director of the USF Heritage Research Lab. \nDr. Marco RobinsonAssistant Professor of History and the Assistant Director of the Ruth J.
