Archives and Accountability: Revisiting Justice in the Rosenberg Case

To coincide with the release of new archival documents on the Rosenberg case, including ones from the National Security Agency, BU Libraries and the Elie Wiesel Center will hold a symposium at the Howard Thurman Center. This event will feature a documentary screening of Heir to an Execution with filmmaker Ivy Meeropol, remarks from the Rosenbergs’ sons, Robert and Michael Meeropol, an archival exhibit, and a panel on how these new materials, and archives in general, shape public perception of events.
