HMD 2010 Eyebright Project
The Eyebright project was created especially for Holocaust Memorial Day 2010 using the theme The Legacy of Hope in partnership with creative arts group arthur+martha. It uses poetry and black and white art to challenge discrimination and prejudice which can lead, stage by stage, to genocide. HMDT, arthur+martha and New Vic Borderlines worked with teachers and students in Bacup and Rawtenstall, Evesham, Stoke on Trent, Glasgow, Deal and Kirkintilloch to launch the project.
The work has been turned into eight separate units with an overarching introduction. Linked with the Mosaic of Victims case study and stories of the victims of genocide and hatred, each unit encourages students to reverse the negative symbols of persecution and to challenge denial.
You may choose to work through the whole project or one or two units. It is important that you download the introduction which explains how the units work as well as your chosen units.
