Building Bridges: An evening with the Bamileke Community
Aug 5, 2024 - Aug 5, 2024 | 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Join the Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh for an evening of learning and conversation with leaders in the Bamileke and Holocaust Center Generations communities. During this program, we will learn about the Bamileke experience of persecution, explore the intersections between the two communities, and talk about the relationships that have been building between children of survivors of the Holocaust and the Bamileke genocide.
The Bamileke are a minority ethnic group in Cameroon who experienced a genocide from the late 1950s to early 1970s. The Holocaust Center Generations group is composed of children and grandchildren of Holocaust survivors.
