The Jewish Heritage Centre, Italian Canadian League of Manitoba and the Istituto Italiano di Cultura Toronto invite you to a program on Jews in Fascist Italy. This will consist of two workshop presentations followed by the screening of the film Figli del Destino (Children of Destiny) which chronicles the impact of the 1938 Racial Laws on four Italian Jewish children. Presenters will be Prof. Bruce Strang (Department of History, Brandon University) at 1:30 and Jeremy Maron at 3 pm (Curator, Canadian Museum for Human Rights). The film, at 4 pm,  will be introduced by its director, Marco Spagnoli. Due to COVID-19, the programs will be presented as webinars.. For registration for all three programs and further details see jhcwc.org/programs/
