Overview

In a time when division, disinformation, and indifference threaten to eclipse understanding, Lessons from Humanity calls readers back to the moral foundations of history. Through essays that move from the Holocaust to modern America, Glenda Norwood Petz explores how memory, conscience, and citizenship intertwine - and what happens when they are abandoned. Part history, part moral reflection, and part civic meditation, this work examines how prejudice becomes policy, how silence becomes complicity, and how nations lose their reflection in the mirror of conscience. Drawing from Holocaust studies, social ethics, and democratic philosophy, Petz offers a compelling reminder that remembrance is not a passive act - it is the first line of defense against hatred and the erosion of democracy. A vital resource for educators, students, and thoughtful citizens alike, Lessons from Humanity affirms that the past is never truly past - and that moral courage begins with remembering.
