Holocaust Remembrance Day

I know it's not a pleasant topic, but this is important! Since anti-semitism is rising around the world, it is more important than ever for us to recognize the critical lessons of Holocaust history as we commemorate the victims and honor the survivors.

Since anti-semitism is rising around the world, it is more important than ever for us to recognize the critical lessons of Holocaust history as we commemorate the victims and honor the survivors. 

International Holocaust Remembrance Day is Jan 27. It's the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau— is International Holocaust Remembrance Day, a time to remember the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and the millions of other victims of Nazi persecution. (Note: there were millions of non-Jews who were also victims.) 

At the US Holocaust Memorial Museum and other commemoration sites, we remember Holocaust victims by reading their names, by lighting candles, and by learning about the Holocaust. All of us can mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day by sharing the truth of the Holocaust and by confronting antisemitism and hate in our daily lives.

International Holocaust Remembrance Day 

The United Nations 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 six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust, and millions of other victims of Nazism, and to develop educational programs to help prevent future genocides.

Yom HaShoah Holocaust Remembrance Day 

In synagogues around the world, Jews get together to observe Yom HaShoah. Twenty years ago, at one synagogue I was a member of, we wrote actual prisoner numbers on our arms in black marker. 

For me, this deepened the experience and magnified the importance of remembering the horrendous murders of millions of Jews and others peoples during the Holocaust.
