Prof. Jan Grabowski
The AJA has sponsored the Jewish Quarterly’s August 2024 issue featuring Prof. Jan Grabowski’s essay on ‘Whitewash: Poland and the Jews’’.
A professor of history at the University of Ottawa, Prof. Grabowski will be speaking about his remarkable work which examines and critiques how the Holocaust is remembered in modern day Poland. His talk will also explore the phenomenon of historical distortions that challenge the truth of the Holocaust.
The AJA, which was established to defend the interests of British Jews, has sponsored the Jewish Quarterly’s August 2024 issue featuring Prof. Jan Grabowski’s ground-breaking essay.

The lecture will be followed by a panel discussion to be chaired by Martin Winstone, Head of Education and Senior Historical Advisor to the Holocaust Educational Trust and Project Historian for the UK Holocaust Memorial Foundation, and Prof Michael Fleming, historian and professor at the Polish University Abroad in London. Maiken Umbach, Professor of Modern History and chief advisor at the National Holocaust Centre and Museum, will introduce Prof Grabowski. The Centre’s Rapid Racism Unit is sponsored by the AJA.
