To honor Holocaust Remembrance Day on Jan. 27, Schaumburg Library is offering a viewing and discussion of the documentary "Hitler's Courts" Jan. 25, and an evening with author Michael Greenberg discussing his book "Tables Turned on Them: Jews Guarding Nazi POWs" on Jan. 18.

Along with Arlington Heights Memorial Library, Schaumburg Library is co-sponsoring an evening with author and filmmaker Joshua M. Greene. View Greene's 35-minute documentary, "Hitler's Courts," then join him for a discussion of the consequences of appointing judges based not on their wisdom, but on their allegiance to the head of state.

This program will take place on Zoom at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 25. You may also watch this program live streamed on YouTube at SchaumburgLibrary.tv. Learn more and register now at Schaumburg Library.org.
