Memory Unearthed offers a rare glimpse of life inside the Lodz Ghetto through the lens of Polish Jewish photojournalist Henryk Ross. Ross used his official position as cover, endangering his own life to covertly document the lives of others. The exhibition reveals more than 200 of Ross’s photographs, plus artifacts and testimony to provide students the opportunity to think about the issues portrayed and how they too can take a stand as citizen photojournalists today.
