South Florida Report: Boca Raton Couple Joins International Initiative To Transform Historic Auschwitz Site
"The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) announced last week that the building known as “House 88,” which once served as the residence of Auschwitz commandant Rudolf Höss and which literally overlooked the Auschwitz extermination camp, will become the Auschwitz Research Center on Hate, Extremism, and Radicalization (ARCHER). The initiative launches as antisemitism surges globally, with recent Anti-Defamation League data showing a dramatic rise in antisemitic attitudes worldwide over the past decade."
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.
