<div class="event-content">
<p>ZAP! POW! BAM! These words jump off the page as
Captain America and Superman attack the comic book version of Adolf
Hitler, who in reality was anything but an imaginary evil.</p>
<p>Superheroes have always fought dangerous villains. Their battle
against Hitler in the 1930s and 1940s taught children about World War II
and the Nazis. But it took years before the Holocaust and Jewish
victims were clearly illustrated and identified in popular comics and
graphic novels. Join us to learn how artists like Joe Kubert and Art
Spiegelman led the industry to shed light on one of the darkest chapters
in history.</p>
<p><strong>Guests</strong><br><strong>Dr. Samantha Baskind</strong>, Professor of Art History, Cleveland State University<br><strong>Eli Rosenbaum, Director</strong>, Human Rights Enforcement Strategy and Policy, US Department of Justice</p>
<p><strong>Commentary<br>Adam Kubert</strong>, Comic Book Artist and Educator and son of Joe Kubert</p>
<p><strong>Host</strong><br><strong>Dr. Edna Friedberg</strong>, Historian, United States Holocaust Memorial Museum</p>
