A new wave of research into #Genocide is overturning stories about victims going meekly to slaughter.

Resistance was frequent, both among the Armenians (against whom the Turks began a genocide on this day in 1915) and among Jews during the Holocaust.

Today is the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. CNN has a powerful interactive where relatives share family stories of loss and survival during the Holocaust and the monthlong fight against the Nazis in Poland.

It includes Wolf Blitzer's and Dana Bash's personal family histories.

Don't say #NeverForget and then vote for people who target marginalized groups.

Honor #HolocaustRemembranceDay by making sure these atrocities never happen, to anyone, ever again.

Sit down in a quiet place, and take a moment to think about and reflect upon the approximately six million #Jews murdered in the #Holocaust by #NaziGermany and its collaborators, and for the #JewishResistance in that period. Think about what you would do/are doing to make sure it never happens again

*Another milestone came in 2017 when Ginger and her family traveled to Germany. It was the first time Ginger revisited the orchard. Mere weeks after arriving back in the U.S., she was horrified to watch on TV as white supremacists marched through Charlottesville carrying torches, chanting “Jews will not replace us.”*

As we pass the 100th day of the #MAGARepublicans control of the House is a good time to remind US all why there is only 2 (foolish) Jewish GOP members in Congress
Just yesterday we learned awful GOP Traitor @RepGosar promoted a Holocaust-denier website

Never again.

80 years since Warsaw Ghetto Uprising

#HolocaustRemembranceDay

“… on April 18, the Yad Vashem Holocaust remembrance center in Jerusalem chose “Jewish Resistance during the Holocaust: Marking 80 years since the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.” In addition to highlighting examples of Jews taking up arms, attention will be given to ways in which Jews resisted their oppressors spiritually”

Im ersten Beitrag, der vor fast genau 10 Jahren bei musermeku erschien, ging es übrigens um den #HolocaustRemembranceDay: https://musermeku.org/holocaust-gedenktag/ Auch wenn wir mittlerweile nur noch selten über Erinnerungskultur schreiben, ist uns das Thema bis heute sehr wichtig #yomhashoah

A two-minute siren marks Holocaust Remembrance Day in Israel. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will attend a wreath-laying ceremony at Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial.

BTW, today is Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day. Our Jewish community should be able to participate in #A2Council without being subjected to holocaust denial on any day, but particularly this one.

Today is #YomHaShoah, #HolocaustRemembranceDay. We mourn our families and others who didn’t survive the genocide. 6 million Jews. My grandfather’s 4 sisters (Chana, Devorah, Ethel, Malka), and his parents were all murdered. He came to Canada to escape #antisemitism. #NeverAgain

🪷 We honor #GadBeck, last known gay survivor of the #Holocaust. As a teenager, he put on a Hitler Youth uniform to free his gay Jewish lover from a Nazi detention center.

Like so many others alive today, the memory of this family's connection to the #Holocaust had been lost, until they charted out their #Genealogy. This video gives a mind-jarring demonstration of how many branches of so many #FamilyTrees were never allowed to bloom & grow, and a vivid reminder of why we must #NeverForget .

The #AntiSemitism which fueled the gas chambers did not suddenly begin in the 1930s. It had been kindling a flame of hate long before, and was merely practicing for #Auschwitz & #Buchenwald, when the brutality of the #Pogroms began in the 1800s.

#Genealogy is important because it does not merely give us names; it connects us to #history and imbues & instills within us the importance of fighting the hatred of the past, whenever it raises its ugly head in our present.
