OxHMD23 - Speaking Across the Divide
Dr Noemie Lopian, the daughter of Holocaust survivors, has teamed up with Derek Niemann, the grandson of an SS officer. In a highly unusual and indeed possibly unique partnership, Noemie and Derek are sharing their stories as a warning of the perils of extremism and to inspire greater understanding. Their ongoing speaking tour began in 2019. They have talked at schools, universities, and synagogues, as well as being keynote speakers at a range of public events.
