THE ONEG SHABBAT ARCHIVES: HOW DID DOCUMENTATION BECOME RESISTANCE IN THE WARSAW GHETTO?

February 17th, 2026

4:00 PM ET

Our webinars are designed to increase participants’ knowledge of Holocaust history, explore and access classroom-ready content, and support instructional practice to promote student learning and understanding of this complex history and its lasting effect on the world.

Focusing on the Oneg Shabbat Archive, participants will explore how Jewish historians, writers, and community members secretly recorded all aspects of their daily lives to preserve truth in the face of Nazi oppression. Facilitated by Lisa Biton, head of the English-speaking Education Section at Yad Vashem, the webinar will examine documentation as an act of courage, historical responsibility, and resistance, and consider why these records remain essential for understanding the Holocaust and the power of bearing witness today.
