The Holocaust was a genocide in which approximately six million Jews were killed by Adolf Hitler's Nazi regime and their collaborators.

Thanks to a grant from the South Carolina Council on the Holocaust, SCETV created a forum on the Holocaust to provide teachers access to a variety of resources when teaching their students about this tragic chapter from human history. This curriculum package is made up of a teacher's guide and interviews with South Carolinians who survived the Holocaust and those who liberated the concentration camps or witnessed the atrocities that took place at them.

 In the Seared Souls documentary, the interviews were combined with dramatic archival footage for a powerful and moving record of the inhumanity that was experienced during the Holocaust.
