The recent furor over health care reform in the United States has produced some outrageous accusations, not the least of which has been the comparison of President Obama's proposals to "Nazi medicine." Come to this event on Monday, October 19 and learn what Nazi "medicine" was really all about. Dr. Rhoda Mahran, an expert on the Nazi medical experiments conducted before and during the Holocaust, has taught medical ethics in Chicago. She now lives in Dayton. We have invited her to make a presentation in the Forum, Building 14, at 6 PM on October 19. The event is free and open to the public.We will be screening the 60-minute film In the Shadow of the Reich: Nazi Medicine following which Dr Mahran will facilitate discussion and answer questions about the film. The topic is not just a matter of Third Reich history; it has implications for medical ethics today. Contact committee chair Sean Frost () for more information.
*This event is sponsored by the Holocaust Remembrance Committee and is made possible by the generous support of the College-wide Diversity Committee.
