Group submission address: shoah@unc.edu Moderator contact address: shoah-request@unc.edu (Daniel Aldrich, Rick Horowitz & Bob Michael) For your newsgroups file: soc.culture.jewish.holocaust The Shoah. (Moderated) The charter, culled from the call for votes: This newsgroup will create a storagehouse for all kinds of information from various sources on the Holocaust in Europe that occurred between 1942-1945 (along with the events leading up to it that happened in the early 30's). This newsgroup will be called soc.culture.jewish.holocaust. While the newsgroup is entitled "Holocaust," it will involve materials only from the situation known in Hebrew as the Shoah -- the systematic genocide of 9 million individuals, including 6 million Jews. This newgroup will include Holocaust materials from both personal testimonies of survivors and their families and "hard" facts from historians and observers. This newsgroup will be moderated to prevent any anti-Semitic or race-baiting comments from Neo-Nazis or self-proclaimed "academic" Holocaust deniers or revisionists. This will not be a forum for discussing whether or not the Shoah happened; instead, it will be a place for intelligent and factual discussion of those events. For those Usenet readers who wish to debate the existence of the Holocaust, they are encouraged to read the groups alt.revisionists and soc.history, along with the group alt.skinheads. MODERATION ---------- The guidelines for moderation are as follows: materials which are not accurate factually or are seen as being anti-Semitic or revisionist will not be allowed on the group. All other posts will be accepted. As of now, the moderators for the group include Bob Michael of Dartmouth, Rick Horowitz of the California State University at Fresno, and Daniel Aldrich of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. If an article is considered to be factually inaccurate or purposefully anti-Semitic (or any kind of hate speech) then a vote will be taken among the moderators. Two of of the three must agree that the material is hateful in order for it to be removed. All other material will be accepted, be it theological or factual or personal in nature.
