It is human nature to want to leave the past behind. Having borne witness to the depths of evil, these survivors remind us of the vital refrain: “never again.” The history of the Holocaust is forever seared into the history of humankind, and it is the shared responsibility of all people to ensure that the horrors of the Shoah can never be erased from our collective memory. We honor the memories of precious lives lost, contemplate the incomprehensible wound to our humanity, mourn for the communities broken and scattered, and embrace those who survived the Holocaust - some of whom are still with us today, continuing to embody extraordinary resilience after all these years. An estimated six million Jews perished alongside millions of other innocent victims - Roma and Sinti, Slavs, disabled persons, LGBTQ+ individuals, and others - systematically murdered by the Nazis and their collaborators in one of the cruelest and most heinous campaigns in human history. On Yom HaShoah - Holocaust Remembrance Day - we stand in solidarity with the Jewish people in America, Israel, and around the world to remember and reflect on the horrors of the Holocaust.
