Witness to the HolocaustIn partnership with the Georgia Commission on the Holocaust and the Georgia Public Library Service, the Coastal Plain Regional Library is proud to host a touring banner exhibit visiting public libraries statewide in an effort to preserve the memory of the Holocaust and to promote public understanding of the history.
The exhibit, “Witness to the Holocaust,” will be on display at the Coastal Plain Regional Library, 2014 Chesnutt Ave., from April 1 through May 1. The exhibit highlights William Alexander Scott III, a World War II veteran and civil rights activist who served as a photographer in a segregated battalion of the United States
Army. He witnessed and photographed the liberation of the Buchenwald concentration camp in Germany. The exhibit also draws parallels between the 1860s-1960s Jim Crow Laws in the United States, and the 1935-
1945 Nuremburg Race Laws implemented in Germany and Nazi controlled areas of Europe.
“Witness to the Holocaust” will be on display at the Coastal Plain Regional Library System Headquarters from April 1 to May 1, 2024. The library is located at 2014 Chesnutt Avenue, Tifton, GA 31794, and is open to the public Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 11:00 am-5:00 pm, and will also be open Saturday, April 13, from 10:00 am-2:00 pm. Find out about other library updates and news on our website, cprl.org, or find us on social media on Facebook, Instagram, and X (Twitter).
Next meeting is Tuesday April 30th @5:00
