Disposable Humanity – Film Screening

March 22 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Through decades of research and powerful interviews, the Mitchell family—a team of disability studies scholars and filmmakers—investigates the Nazi Aktion T4 program, the first Nazi mass killing initiative and precursor to the Holocaust. Featuring conversations with memorial directors, disabled people, and descendants of victims, Disposable Humanity brings to light the forgotten truth that disabled people were the first to be targeted by the Third Reich. This revelatory documentary exposes how this chapter has been neglected in public memory and calls for its rightful place in Holocaust history.
