Join 3GNY for a conversation about the transmission (or lack thereof) of our grandparents’ stories and the impact that knowing or not knowing has had on our lives.
Dr. Marshall Duke, the Charles Howard Candler Professor of Psychology at Emory University, working under a grant from the Marcus Foundation, will discuss his findings from 20 years of research on family narratives. He will also discuss an upcoming project in which 3Gs are invited to share their knowledge of their grandparents’ stories. Dr. Duke is joined by Sara Kaplan, a 3G and graduate student in clinical psychology at Long Island University Brooklyn, who is currently beginning work on her doctoral dissertation on the effects of Holocaust trauma in their grandparents on 3Gs.
This event is sponsored by the Marcus Foundation. Kosher fare and refreshments will be provided.
