On Jan 27 1945, Soviet Red Army troops liberated Auschwitz-Birkenau. The war in Europe ended May 8, 1945.
In 2005, the United Nations designated Int’l Holocaust Remembrance Day to fall on the anniversary of this liberation, a time of remembrance for all victims of the Nazis.  #remember

Today we honor #DrMartinLutherKingJr and ask ourselves, how can we make his vision of a just world a reality? A contemporary of Anne Frank (both were born in 1929), he inspires us to lend a hand to those whose voices need to be lifted. Because we are all connected.

We are shocked by the Hamas terrorist attack on Israeli civilians that took place on Oct 7, on Simchat Torah. We grieve the loss of so many innocent people, young & old.
Follow link in bio for our complete statement and ways to help those in need in your community and the world.

In June of 1944, Anne & Margot were hopeful that the war would be over as soon as September and that they would be able to return to school.
Tragically, the eight that were in hiding within the Annex arrived on the last Westerbork train to Auschwitz-Birkenau on September 5, 1944.

#YomHaShoah began tonight. We #reflect on the words of Anne’s father, Otto Frank, who survived the #Holocaust :
“We cannot change what happened anymore. The only thing we can do is learn from the past and realize what discrimination and the persecution of innocent people mean.”
