July 30: Amber Maze
By Rotary Club of Indianapolis on July 25, 2024
| Join us Tuesday to hear from Amber Maze with the Indianapolis Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC). JCRC serves as the liaison between elected representatives, policy leaders, and members of Jewish communities throughout Indiana. They advocate for policies that promote equity, religious freedom, and human rights. The JCRC was one of the 2023 Indianapolis Rotary Foundation Community Grant Recipients for their production of Sweet Lorraine in Auschwitz. The documentary is part of a mission to educate the public about the Holocaust and help counter antisemitism. We will hear about the production of the documentary and the story of Frank Grunwald, a Hoosier Holocaust survivor. Amber Maze is an expert in the field of genocide education and mass atrocity prevention. Her work focuses on Holocaust and genocide education, human rights advocacy, and the preservation of memory. Amber’s career has led her to work for the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and the Enough Project, a Washington D.C.-based genocide prevention organization. Amber holds a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology from Ball State University and a Master of Arts in Holocaust and Genocide Studies from Stockton University of New Jersey. Amber also serves as the Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Crane Center for Mass Atrocity Prevention. All are welcome at Rotary programs.
