“Genocide and Human Rights – a World View” A CONVERSATION WITH FR. PATRICK DESBOIS OF PARIS

Fr. Desbois has dedicated his life to educating the world about the Holocaust and anti-Semitism, and providing proof of crimes against humanity. His work has taken him from the killing fields of Eastern Europe in World War II to the contemporary war crimes in the Ukraine. His human rights work has brought him to Guatemala and to Iraq to work with the Yazidi survivors of ISIS atrocities. Fr. Desbois is also a Professor in the Center for the Study of Jewish Civilization at Georgetown University. He serves as
a consultant to the Vatican and was a personal aide to the late Archbishop of Paris, Cardinal Jean-Marie Lustiger.
