Delo: Höss' "Paradise House" Near Auschwitz Will Not Be A Tourist Attraction, But An Oasis Of Peace
"Peeking through the windows of strangers and constantly staring at the crematorium have taken their toll. The house was purchased by the Counter Extremism Project (CEP), an NGO that fights extremist groups, radicalism, and online recruitment of extremists. They have clear plans for the building – they want it to become the home of the Center for Research on Hate, Extremism, and Radicalism, and they would like to turn it into a space where people can learn and talk about extremism and the fight against it."
The Counter Extremism Project Presents
Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust
Marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Counter Extremism Project's ARCHER at House 88 presents a landmark concert of music composed in ghettos and death camps, performed in defiance of resurgent antisemitism. Curated with world renowned composer, conductor, and musicologist Francesco Lotoro, the program restores classical, folk, and popular works, many written on scraps of paper or recalled from memory, to public consciousness. Featuring world and U.S. premieres from Lotoro's archive, this concert honors a repertoire that endured against unimaginable evil.
