About Us

"If one by one, hundreds of children learn the evils of hatred in history, then learn to face and change that hatred in their own world-through art, language, and service-and to begin to build communities of educated, committed citizens, who is to say that Facing History cannot be the catalyst for an end to prejudice, violence, and injustice?" -Facing History and Ourselves student

Founded in 1976, Facing History and Ourselves is an international educational and professional development organization whose mission is to engage students of diverse backgrounds in an examination of racism, prejudice, and antisemitism in order to promote the development of a more humane and informed citizenry. By studying the historical development of the Holocaust and other examples of genocide, students make the essential connection between history and the moral choices they confront in their own lives.
