Galloway, N.J. — A survivor of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda and the son of two Holocaust survivors will share their experiences during a special discussion at Stockton University on Thursday, Nov. 12.

“After Genocide: Resilience, Memory, and Forgiveness” will feature Kizito Kalima and Dr. Alex Kor from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in Lecture Hall L-112 on Stockton's Galloway campus.

Kalima survived the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, while Kor is the son of Holocaust survivors Eva and Mickey Kor.

Drawing from their personal experiences and family histories, the speakers will discuss how individuals, families and communities rebuild after unimaginable loss.

The conversation will explore the importance of preserving memories of the past, confronting hatred and injustice, and how forgiveness can provide a pathway toward healing and reconciliation.

The event is free and open to the public, but reservations are required by calling Sara and Sam Schoffer Holocaust Resource Center at Stockton at 609-652-4699 or emailing HRC@stockton.edu. New Jersey educators who attend can receive two professional development hours.
