Your posts: They remind us what we're all capable of. They remind us of the unspeakable cruelty we can inflict. They remind us we MUST NEVER forget or allow it to happen again.

Then we see the individual. We see the person, the life that should have been. We see someone who could have been me or you.

We must be on our guard always. We must see everyone who suffered & perished. We must keep them in our hearts and minds.

And you must never stop the work you do. Thank you xx

@auschwitzmuseum Lest we forget… Thank you for keeping their memory alive and for reminding us of how easily monsters are made.
@auschwitzmuseum He had so much life left. Heartbreaking.
