Citizens Commission on Human Rights of Nashville
(CCHR Nashville) is holding a special briefing on The Men Behind Hitler in
honor of International Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27.
The UN General Assembly designated
January 27—the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau—as
International Holocaust Remembrance Day. “On this annual day of commemoration,
the UN urges every member state to honor the victims of the Nazi era and to
develop educational programs to help prevent future genocides,” according to
the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum’s website. So it is that the
Citizens Commission on Human Rights chose this day to present a special
briefing on “The Men Behind Hitler,” which takes place at 5pm at the Nashville
Church of Scientology.
“This will certainly be an education for
those attending, but it’s time people looked at this,” says church pastor Rev.
Brian Fesler, “Break time is over. Class is in session.”
The event will look at the atrocities
committed in the early 1940s under the Nazi regime and show exactly whose ideas
fueled Hitler and the Holocaust. As well, organizers say this event will expose
how these same people continued their vicious legacy into today’s world.
CCHR has long been an advocate for human
rights, especially as relates to patients’ rights in the field of mental
health. Per the international CCHR website, cchr.org, “CCHR has long fought to
restore basic inalienable human rights to the field of mental health,
including, but not limited to, full informed consent regarding the medical
legitimacy of psychiatric diagnosis, the risks of psychiatric treatments, the
right to all available medical alternatives and the right to refuse any
treatment considered harmful.”
CCHR is a non-profit, non-political,
non-religious mental health watchdog. Its mission is to eradicate abuses
committed under the guise of mental health and enact patient and consumer
protections. CCHR receives reports about abuses in the field of mental health
and is especially interested in situations where persons experienced abuse or
damage due to a false diagnosis or unwanted and harmful psychiatric treatments,
such as psychiatric drugs, electroshock (ECT) and electronic or magnetic brain
stimulation (TMS). CCHR is often able to assist with filing complaints, and can
work with a person’s attorney to further investigate the case. To contact CCHR
