A talk on the insidious process of changing hearts and minds - from humanity to inhumanity. The talk follows the experience of the author's mother who was 14 when Hitler's Nazi government came to power in her home town of Saarbrucken in Germany. It will consist of historical information and lively readings from Burying the Ghosts to allow the audience to understand these momentous times from a personal perspective.
