Researcher of mass gravesites to speak at Marquette

          The Milwaukee Jewish Federation and Marquette University presents “Holocaust by Bullets” with Father Patrick Desbois on Tuesday, April 21, 7 p.m.

          Desbois in 2004 founded Yahad – In Unum (YahadInUnum.org). This organization is dedicated to identifying and documenting the sites of Jewish mass executions by Nazi mobile-killing units in Eastern Europe. It has so far revealed 1,337 execution sites with the aid of 3,580 testimonies.

          This free lecture will include a question and answer session with Desbois and the opportunity to purchase and have him sign his book, “The Holocaust by Bullets.”

          The lecture will be held at Marquette University’s Eckstein Hall-Appellate Court Room, 1215 W. Michigan St., (the building is between Wisconsin Avenue and Clybourn Street), which has on-site parking.
