International Holocaust Remembrance Day

[coolkitty1934]

From 1941 to 1945 Nazi Germany and its collaborators committed the systematic murder of over six million Jews. The Holocaust, also known as the Shoah, was Nazi Germany’s “Final Solution” for eliminating all Jewish people within Nazi Germany’s grasp. By the end of this heinous act, roughly two-thirds of Europe’s Jewish population had been murdered. The United Nations General Assembly’s resolution 60/7 designated International Holocaust Remembrance Day on November 1, 2005, during the 42nd plenary session. Join us on January 27 for International Holocaust Remembrance Day when remember the Nazi’s act of genocide so that no one else will suffer like that again.

I have done extensive reading for years on this disturbing time in history.

The horrors and traumatic experiences endured is beyond my comprehension.

My take away is the knowledge I gained from their strength and survival instincts.... determination to survive, help each other as best they could, push through when they had no end in sight.

All of this makes me realize my fight is nothing in comparison. I've never said " poor me" How can I justify that?

Jews, gays, people with disabilities, other religions and people's that didn't go with the Hitler views.Idk how something like that even went as far as it did or how somebody like that ever got into a position of power.

Horrible time in history

You’re right. As a loving human being I believe there is hope for “almost” everyone😀

[Sabbath1 in reply to Hidden]

Almost everyone...

Just not politicians 😂

[Hidden in reply to Sabbath1]

Well, just one in particular. Maybe 2 if we include the newly elected congressman who just happens to be a pathological liar … to the enth degree. But who am I to judge. Maybe he’ll join this forum one day soon😀

[Sabbath1 in reply to Hidden]
