2026 Lawton Conference

FOR EDUCATORS ONLY

SB1671 Eva Unterman 2026 Conferences for Holocaust Education

Theme: Jewish Persecution and Beyond: Other Victims of the Holocaust

This year’s theme will uncover the scope of Nazi persecution beyond Jewish Communities by answering questions such as:

• Who were the Other Victims of the Holocaust?

• Why were they targeted for persecution?

• How did their treatment compare/contrast to what the Jews experienced?

• Are there also parallels between the Victims of the Trail of Tears and the Tulsa Race Massacre that might inform today’s world to STAND UP TO HATE in defense of all people in a democracy?

These are all important issues for current students because the lessons of the Holocaust and other atrocities apply universally to the destructive nature of HATE whenever and wherever it occurs.

Please join us for the SB1671 Eva Unterman 2026 Conferences for Holocaust Education, sponsored by the Oklahoma Holocaust Legislation Coalition to explore these and other questions when we gather for a day of learning in June and July of 2026.

State Holocaust experts will present experience-based, classroom-ready lessons. Social Studies, ELA and Visual Arts teachers will receive 7 Professional Development Credits and instruction specific to their disciplines at our four FREE conferences. Breakfast and lunch provided.
