A Night of Human Rights Insight with David Matas (Ottawa)
In honour of Holocaust Education Month, human rights expert and distinguished lawyer, David Matas will deliver a powerful evening sharing how the Nuremberg Trials are ever more relevant in light of the unprecedented crimes perpetrated against Israel.
The event features the screening of "Prosecuting Evil: The Extraordinary World of Ben Ferencz," a compelling film that recounts the life of Ben Ferencz, the last surviving Nuremberg prosecutor, who passed away at the remarkable age of 103.
The film will be followed by a Q & A period with David Matas, senior honorary counsel to B'nai Brith Canada.
Hosted by the Jewish Federation of Ottawa’s Shoah Committee, this evening promises to be an enlightening celebration of human rights, justice, and a solemn remembrance of the Holocaust.
