Hello, welcome to Dance and Noise History here. This week we have been thinking about the

Holocaust on History here. We have heard from a Holocaust survivor, a man who survived

Auschwitz. We heard from Sir John Chousa who wrote a book about the Neuronberg trials,

the attempt to bring the perpetrators of those terrible crimes to justice. And today we're

Day, we should be thinking and talking about these things. If you want to learn more about

the Holocaust, you've got plenty of documentaries and podcasts available at History Hit TV. Just

further link in the description of this podcast. You've got taken us right away and you can

join the revolution. But in the meantime, folks, in the meantime, enjoy this chat with

Professor Rayner Schultz.

Rhonda, thank you very much for coming on the podcast. Thank you for inviting me. So we've

done many podcasts about the Neuronberg trials. I guess it's too easy for people to the international

community to give themselves a pat on the back and think, well, that was that job done,
