LITTLE LECTURES - "One Long Night: A Global History of Concentration Camps" by Andrea Pitzer

For more than one hundred years, at least one concentration camp has existed somewhere on Earth. First used as a battlefield strategy, camps have evolved with each passing decade, and have been used to control or liquidate “undesirable” civilian populations across the globe. On May 19, 2024, Parkersburg-born author and journalist Andrea Pitzer discussed her searing work One Long Night: A Global History of Concentration Camps, and how a broader look at this heartbreaking phenomenon can change the way nations live up to the promise, “Never again.” Pitzer is also the author of "Icebound: Shipwrecked at the Edge of the World" and "The Secret History of Vladimir Nabokov." Her articles have been published in The New York Review of Books and The Washington Post.
