The University of Texas at Tyler Robert R. Muntz Library currently features the exhibit “The Prijedor: Lives from the Bosnian Genocide,” Jeanne Standley, library director, announced.
The public exhibit, continuing through Monday, April 7, tells the story of genocide in the Bosnian city of Prijedor between 1992 and 1995. Thirty-two panels and a 40-minute video with original photographs and testimony from survivors are part of the exhibit. The Texas Holocaust and Genocide Commission serves as sponsor.
