In commemoration of International Holocaust Remembrance Day, survivor Anne Levy will speak. Ms.Levy, who survived the destruction of the Warsaw ghetto and spent the remainder of the war in hiding, confronted Neo Nazi former KKK grand wizard and Louisiana State Representative David Duke in the Louisiana State Capitol regarding Duke's denial of the Holocaust. Ms.Levy's exposure to Duke's Naziism and Racism helped defeat his efforts to run for senator and governor.

Ms. Levy arrived in New Orleans from Hungary and then Poland in 1949 and is an educator and volunteer at the World War II Museum.
