“Remember, it didn’t start with gas chambers. It started with politicians dividing people with an ‘us vs. them’ mentality. It started with intolerance and hate speech, and when people stopped caring, became desensitized, and looked the other way, they entered a slippery slope to genocide.”

"Der Holocaust wurde inmitten der modernen, rationalen Gesellschaft konzipiert und durchgeführt, in einer hochentwickelten Zivilisation und im Umfeld außergewöhnlicher kultureller Leistungen; er muß daher als Problem dieser Gesellschaft, Zivilisation und Kultur betrachtet werden." Zygmunt Bauman

RT: @SMohyeddin On #HolocaustRemembranceDay, an Iranian activist named Bita calls Iran a “concentration camp.” Just wild. How @SkyYaldaHakim doesn’t push back on this ridiculous assertion is beyond me.

On #HolocaustRemembranceDay, you are not remembering the whole story if you forget the disabled people who were murdered. The parallels to what Trumpers are saying and doing now are chilling. theconversation.com/disabled-peo... #pwd #Holocaust

Disabled people were Holocaust...
Disabled people were Holocaust victims, too: they were excluded from German society and murdered by Nazi programs

In 2023, International Holocaust Remembrance Day marks 90 years since the Nazis assumed power. Disabled people were the first Holocaust victims; Nazi programs discriminated against and murdered them.

Every year, I share the memory book of the lost shtetl of Zaromb, near Treblinka. It is a haunting catalogue of horrors, compiled in 1946. One of the recurring themes of the accounts: Zarombers faced as much danger from Poles as they did from Germans.

“As we saw later, the Poles took an active part in the massacre of the Jews of Zaromb. Several days before, a number of Polish cart drivers had been given orders to be ready to transport the "Zshides" (derogatory term for Jews) of Zaromb. They kept that order secret.”

During WWII my grandfather was soldier in the German army. Together with his group was sent to Poland. There he met this Jew. My grandfather knew that this Jew was soon to be sent to a concentration camp and would most probably die. And my grandfather knew that he could not help him. So he took this picture to remember him.
