In this episode of our Podcast series ‘The Ends of War’, we talk to Magdalena Saryusz-Wolska (GHI Warsaw) about forgotten sites of the Holocaust and Anna-Carolin Augustin (GHI Washington) about the history of Jewish ritual objects that survived as displaced objects. How do we remember these crimes today? And what significance do objects - witnesses to the past - carry?
