Professor Bartov shares his insight.<br /><br /><b>Omer Bartov Bio: </b>Born in Israel and educated at Tel Aviv University and St. Antony's College, Oxford, Omer Bartov's early research concerned the Nazi indoctrination of the Wehrmacht and the crimes it committed in World War II, analyzed in his books, The Eastern Front, 1941-1945, and Hitler's Army. He then turned to the links between total war and genocide, discussed in his books Murder in Our Midst, Mirrors of Destruction, and Germany's War and the Holocaust. Bartov's interest in representation also led to his study, The "Jew" in Cinema, which examines the recycling of antisemitic stereotypes in film. His more recent work has focused on interethnic relations in the borderlands of Eastern Europe. Recent publications include Erased: Vanishing Traces of Jewish Galicia in Present-Day Ukraine (2007), Anatomy of a Genocide: The Life and Death of a Town Called Buczacz (2018), winner of the National Jewish Book Award, and Tales from the Borderlands: Making and Unmaking the Galician Past (2022). His many edited volumes include Shatterzone of Empires: Coexistence and Violence in the German, Habsburg, Russian, and Ottoman Borderlands (2013), Voices on War and Genocide: Three Accounts of the World Wars in a Galician Town (2020), and Israel-Palestine: Lands and Peoples (2021).

Dr. Sidhwa serves as a peer reviewer for the Journal of the American College of Surgeons on global surgical topics and as an external expert reviewer for Human Rights Watch.Feroze was born in Houston, TX to Parsi parents who left Pakistan to find a better life. They moved to the UK and then in the United States. Feroze grew up in Flint, MI. After graduating from Johns Hopkins University in 2004 with a bachelor’s degree in public health he lived in Haifa, Israel for one year, working with a Palestinian-Jewish cooperative in the city. He then taught middle school in east Baltimore for one year before starting medical school at the University of Texas School of Medicine at San Antonio. During his time in medical school he also obtained a Master of Public Health from the Harvard School of Public Health.After finishing medical school, Feroze joined the general surgery residency program at Boston Medical Center. During his residency he completed a surgical research fellowship at Boston Children’s Hospital. During that time Feroze treated victims of the Boston Marathon Bombing. After finishing residency in 2018 he began his one-year trauma/surgical critical care fellowship at Cooper University Healthcare in Camden, NJ. After completing his fellowship, he moved to California where he now practices as a trauma surgeon at a county hospital and as a general surgeon in the Veterans Affairs Northern California Health Care System.Dr. Sidhwa critiques the United States’ role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through a unique lens. He is a secular American with no ethnic or religious ties to the Middle East. He has a broad knowledge of Israeli and American academic work on the conflict, and closely follows the technical humanitarian, human rights, medical, political, economic, and environmental research done on the topic by Israeli, Palestinian, and international agencies. His public health degrees afford him a broad understanding of how these different areas affect the people of the region. He has no interest in any particular political solution to the conflict. And, most importantly to him, he has seen the conflict in person, seen what it is doing to Palestinians and to Israelis, and has treated its victims with his own hands.<br /><br /><br /><br />Official podcast of The Borgen Project, an international organization that fights for the world's poor.

Dr. Sidhwa serves as a peer reviewer for the Journal of the American College of Surgeons on global surgical topics and as an external expert reviewer for Human Rights Watch.Feroze was born in Houston, TX to Parsi parents who left Pakistan to find a better life. They moved to the UK and then in the United States. Feroze grew up in Flint, MI. After graduating from Johns Hopkins University in 2004 with a bachelor’s degree in public health he lived in Haifa, Israel for one year, working with a Palestinian-Jewish cooperative in the city. He then taught middle school in east Baltimore for one year before starting medical school at the University of Texas School of Medicine at San Antonio. During his time in medical school he also obtained a Master of Public Health from the Harvard School of Public Health.After finishing medical school, Feroze joined the general surgery residency program at Boston Medical Center. During his residency he completed a surgical research fellowship at Boston Children’s Hospital. During that time Feroze treated victims of the Boston Marathon Bombing. After finishing residency in 2018 he began his one-year trauma/surgical critical care fellowship at Cooper University Healthcare in Camden, NJ. After completing his fellowship, he moved to California where he now practices as a trauma surgeon at a county hospital and as a general surgeon in the Veterans Affairs Northern California Health Care System.Dr. Sidhwa critiques the United States’ role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through a unique lens. He is a secular American with no ethnic or religious ties to the Middle East. He has a broad knowledge of Israeli and American academic work on the conflict, and closely follows the technical humanitarian, human rights, medical, political, economic, and environmental research done on the topic by Israeli, Palestinian, and international agencies. His public health degrees afford him a broad understanding of how these different areas affect the people of the region. He has no interest in any particular political solution to the conflict. And, most importantly to him, he has seen the conflict in person, seen what it is doing to Palestinians and to Israelis, and has treated its victims with his own hands.<br /><br />Official podcast of The Borgen Project, an international organization that fights for the world's poor.

He is the Samuel Pisar Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University.<br /><br />Born in Israel and educated at Tel Aviv University and St. Antony's College, Oxford, Omer Bartov's early research concerned the Nazi indoctrination of the Wehrmacht and the crimes it committed in World War II, analyzed in his books, The Eastern Front, 1941-1945, and Hitler's Army. He then turned to the links between total war and genocide, discussed in his books Murder in Our Midst, Mirrors of Destruction, and Germany's War and the Holocaust. Bartov's interest in representation also led to his study, The "Jew" in Cinema, which examines the recycling of antisemitic stereotypes in film. His more recent work has focused on interethnic relations in the borderlands of Eastern Europe. Recent publications include Erased: Vanishing Traces of Jewish Galicia in Present-Day Ukraine (2007), Anatomy of a Genocide: The Life and Death of a Town Called Buczacz (2018), winner of the National Jewish Book Award, and Tales from the Borderlands: Making and Unmaking the Galician Past (2022). His many edited volumes include Shatterzone of Empires: Coexistence and Violence in the German, Habsburg, Russian, and Ottoman Borderlands (2013), Voices on War and Genocide: Three Accounts of the World Wars in a Galician Town (2020), and Israel-Palestine: Lands and Peoples (2021).
