Charles J. Brown, a fellow at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and a former member of the Obama administration, will present the lecture “Holocaust: Justice and Accountability,” on Thursday, April 16, at 7 p.m. in the Anita Tuvin Schlechter (ATS) Auditorium.
Brown will address how the pursuit of Nazi criminals continues to this day even though the passage of time and fading memories make successful prosecutions difficult. He is the managing director of the consulting firm Strategy for Humanity and is the Leonard and Sophie Davis Genocide Prevention Fellow at the Simon-Skjodt Center for the Prevention of Genocide at the U. S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, where he is conducting a review of U.S. policy toward the crisis in the Central African Republic. He served in the Obama administration from 2010 to 2014 and was the senior advisor on atrocity prevention and response in the Department of Defense from 2012 to 2014.
This program is sponsored by the Clarke Forum for Contemporary Issues and the Peacekeeping and Stability Operations Institute (PKSOI) of the U.S. Army War College.
