In Broad Daylight: The Secret Procedures Behind the Holocaust by Bullets

An Evening with Father Patrick Desbois, Founder and President of Yahad-In Unum

In The Holocaust by Bullets, Father Patrick Desbois documented for the first time the murder of 1.5 million Jews in Ukraine during World War II, based on wartime documents, interviews with locals, and the application of modern forensic practices on long-hidden gravesites. Nearly a decade of further work later, Father Desbois, Founder and President of Yahad-In Unum, has assembled in his new book, In Broad Daylight: The Secret Procedures behind the Holocaust by Bullets, a chilling account of how, concretely, these events took place in village after village, from the selection of the date to the twenty-four-hour period in which the mass murders unfolded. Today, such groups as ISIS put into practice the Nazis’ lessons on making genocide efficient.

Father Patrick Desbois is a Catholic priest, President of Yahad – In Unum, a global humanitarian organization he founded in 2004 dedicated to identifying and commemorating the sites of Jewish and Roma mass executions in Eastern Europe during World War II. Father Desbois has devoted his life to researching the Holocaust, fighting anti-Semitism, and furthering relations between Catholics and Jews.
