"It happened, therefore it can happen again: this is the core of what we have to say. It can happen, and it can happen everywhere." - Primo Levi, 1986 The Drowned and the Saved
Never Forget
We
must never forget what happened and remain vigilant now and in the
future to battle against the mass destruction of innocent human beings. News
today with polls showing that new generations are ignorant of the
Holocaust is deeply troubling. As Santayana observed, those who forget
history are doomed to repeat it. This is why we must remember and say never
again.
Memory comes in many forms.

Never Again
Unfortunately
the international community has failed more than once since 1945 to
prevent another mass slaughter. Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge murdered
between one fourth and one third of its population between 1975 and
1979, civil libertarian Nat Hentoff pointed to another genocide that could have been stopped in Rwanda in 1994, and witnessed in Syria in 2016 where religious minorities, including Christians were targeted.
Today it is also important to remember that antisemitism is on the rise world wide and people of the Jewish faith need our solidarity and support in confronting rising hatred and intolerance to ensure that what Nazi Germany did never be repeated, and that there be no more Cambodias, Rwandas, and Syrias.
If you say "never forget" & "never again", think:

"What has my reaction been as a bystander to evil? What is my responsibility in turning the world into a place free of hatred & indifference? What can I do, to make it a better & safer place."
And then, start doing it.
