@auschwitzmuseum these were people with families, lives and dreams. They had people who loved them and who they loved in return. These images confirm this. They were human yet were treated as animals for slaughter. #NeverForget

@BrentTyson What the perpetrators tried to do was to dehumanize the victims. Preserving their humanity is an essence of remembrance.

We also need to remember that other humans treated them like this and that is a powerful warning to us all.
