Today is the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp in Poland.
The event, headlined “Remembering the Holocaust, Fighting Antisemitism,” was co-organized by Jerusalem’s Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial center and the World Holocaust Forum Foundation and was attended by political leaders from around the world.
YAD VASHEM HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL
During my visit a couple of years ago, I found the memorial of a cattle car poised on the edge of an abyss to be very emotional and moving.
