Dobkin Presents at Courage Italia Event


The Italian-American Community Center, as part of its celebration of National Italian-American Heritage Month, hosted a presentation and reception on Oct. 10 which featured Dr. Sharon Dobkin, professor of psychology and director of MCC's Holocaust Genocide Studies Project.

Dobkin was joined by Senator Jim Alesi, Assemblyman Joseph Morelle and Larry Fine, executive director of the Jewish Federation of Rochester, to speak about the Italian effort to rescue Jews during the Holocaust.

The event was organized by the "Courage Italia" committee upon which MCC supporters Simon and Josephine Braitman serve as honorary co-chairs.
