The Holocaust Remembrance

The Holocaust Remembrance is an annual honoring of the millions of Jews and other victims who suffered and perished during the Holocaust (1941-1945), when the Nazi regime systematically persecuted, imprisoned, and murdered six million Jews and millions of others. It's a day to remember the atrocities, reflect on the consequences of hatred and intolerance, and reaffirm commitments to prevent such atrocities from happening again. Memorials, education, and moments of silence are common ways to honor victims, promote awareness, and promote the values of human dignity and justice.
