This is personally very important to me as a descendant of survivors, so I will do my part to make sure the world never forgets.

Study the history. Support studying this history. Make sure people understand as thoroughly as possible the circumstances that allowed the Holocaust to happen. (2/x)

Let the knowledge of our struggle fuel your drive to help other marginalized groups in their movements for recognition and equal rights. Never be silent. Silence is compliance. (5/5)

I'll add a couple, so we have 7

6. Remember that the Holocaust was not a singular event, but a part of a history of struggle and atrocity that is thousands of years old and not over yet.
