The world\u2019s leading expert on the Auschwitz concentration camp, as well as a scholar who has spent years researching Usta\u0161a crimes in the Independent State of Croatia (NDH) and authored the book <em>Jasenovac: Auschwitz of the Balkans<\/em>, will be giving several lectures throughout March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Greif will present a lecture titled <em>&#8220;The Truth About Jasenovac&#8221;<\/em>, organized by <em>Serbian Times<\/em> and the <em>Serb Association of Texas<\/em>, under the patronage of the <em>Serbian American PAC<\/em>.

On <strong>March 16<\/strong>, he will speak at <strong>the hall of Holy Resurrection Church on Redwood Drive in Chicago<\/strong>. The following weekend, he will hold lectures in <strong>Houston on March 21 and 22<\/strong> (<strong>Friday: 12 PM at the Holocaust Museum Houston; Saturday: 6 PM at the Westchase Hotel<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;In recent years, several historical studies have emerged presenting significantly lower estimates of Serbian, Jewish, and Roma victims in Jasenovac and other execution sites in the NDH. These revisionist theories are the reason why, in my lectures, I will once again prove that my previous research is accurate and well-founded. I invite everyone who has the opportunity to attend these lectures. After each session, we will have time for discussion and questions,&#8221; said Professor Gideon Greif.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Gideon-Grajf0-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-169079\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Professor Gideon Greif is currently the <strong>chief historian and researcher<\/strong> at the <em>Shem Olam Institute for Faith, Holocaust Education, Documentation, and Research in Israel<\/em>.
