    Event description

    Jan Grabowski, world-renowned Holocaust historian, discusses his ground-breaking essay 'Whitewash: The Jews and Poland' with the Jewish Quarterly, in conversation with JQ Editor, Jonathan Pearlman. 

    Grabowski examines how museums, schools and state institutions have downplayed and denied the role of Poles in the destruction of the country's Jews. He recounts how his work led to him becoming the victim of a notorious lawsuit, and reviews the far-reaching consequences of Poland's efforts to challenge the truth about the Holocaust.

    Jonathan Pearlman (moderator): Editor of The Jewish Quarterly and Australian Foreign Affairs, also serving as world editor of The Saturday Paper. His writing appears in The Diplomat, Good Weekend, Australian Book Review, and The Jerusalem Report. Pearlman is a Walkley Award finalist and United Nations Media Award winner.
