About this event

Talks & Lectures

Join Holocaust Museum Houston for an intimate author talk in the Boniuk Library.  Houston local Christian Bancroft is the author of A Ghost Has No Fantasies. “Through haunting poetry and prose, A Ghost Has No Fantasies illuminates the forgotten voices of LGBTQ+ individuals who suffered under Nazi persecution. Drawing from archival documents, survivor testimonies, and Gestapo files, Christian Bancroft weaves together the intimate stories of those imprisoned under Paragraph 175 and beyond — gay men, lesbians, and transgender individuals whose experiences have long remained in the shadows of Holocaust memory.” Copies or the book will be available for purchase at the event with a credit card.
