Family member seeks to strip Lemkin's name from group accusing Israel of genocide atrocities

A family member of Raphael Lemkin, who coined the term 'genocide', is seeking to have their name removed from a Pennsylvania nonprofit organization that accuses Israel of committing atrocities, citing personal and professional differences. The group's chairman has been critical of Lemkin's legacy, sparking a dispute within the organization. The lawsuit alleges that Lemkin would be appalled by the group's actions and seeks to distance themselves from his family's name. The outcome of the case is uncertain at this time.
