Today is Yom haShoah, Israel and the Jewish world’s annual day of remembrance of the Holocaust. We remember the names.
We repost here our video about Holocaust Monuments that personalize the victims. We must never forget that each of the vast number of people who were murdered was an individual — a person, not a number; naming names keeps alive the memory of those who were murdered — and of the living Jewish worlds, stretching back generations, that were destroyed.
