On 14 October, we were delighted to welcome Marie Zielinski to the museum.

The visit coincided with the anniversary of the 1943 Sobibรณr uprising, when her mother, Regina Zielinski, escaped the N**i death camp as a teenager.

One of only around 50 escapees to survive the war, Regina later lived in Adelaide and shared her remarkable war time experiences with many school students.

Regina's story will also feature in our new permanent exhibition, ๐˜›๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜š๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ข๐˜ฉ, opening in November.

In September 1935, the N**is introduced the Nuremberg Laws, a series of antisemitic and racist laws that stripped Jewish people of their rights and formalised discrimination across Germany.

The laws banned marriages and relationships between Jews and people classified as having German blood. They also prohibited Jewish households from employing German women under the age of 45.

The Reich Citizenship Law further excluded Jews from full citizenship, reducing them to subjects of the state without equal rights, regardless of their history as German citizens.

On 14 November 1935, a supplementary decree introduced the N**isโ€™ racial definitions of who was considered Jewish. These classifications were based on ancestry rather than personal religious belief or identity.

The Nuremberg Laws marked a significant escalation in the persecution of Jews, turning N**i antisemitic ideology into law and laying the foundations for further discrimination and violence.
The Nuremberg Laws demonstrated how the N**i regime used legislation to legitimise exclusion, strip away rights and divide society according to a fabricated racial ideology.

August brought two wonderful evenings of community, conversation and learning at the Adelaide Holocaust Museum.

From exploring South Australiaโ€™s Jewish community history with David Simmons, to unpacking antisemitic discourse in the media with Dr Pamela Schulz OAM, both events sparked thoughtful discussion and meaningful conversations.

A big thank you to our speakers, panellists and everyone who joined us.

We look forward to seeing you at our events in the future!

Working in groups, students explored the stories of people they saw as having made a meaningful impact. They learnt how to ask thoughtful questions, probe deeper and develop their interview skills before putting those skills into practice.

Each group then brought their learning together in a podcast, comic book and portrait - capturing their chosen person and why their story matters.

Our education team lead, together with Holocaust survivors Andrew Steiner OAM and Eva Temple, were delighted to be part of the studentsโ€™ learning journey.

A huge congratulations to all of the students and teachers involved! ๐Ÿ“ธ
