[trans: 1 week—30,000 names. The Nazis persecuted millions of people. Help remember the victims, because every name counts.]

if you do one thing this holocaust remberance day i want to recommend contributing to the international center for nazi persecution/arolsen archive’s every name counts initiative.

The documents in our archive contain information about the fates of 17.5 million people. We have already scanned them. But to make them visible in our online archive and enable people all over the world to find them there, the information they contain has to be entered into a database – and that’s where we need your help!

they present you with a scanned card that hasn’t been catalogued in the archive. you enter the name, birthdate, and other information so they can now be searchable in their database.

i just finished filling one out for riwka genik, a jewish holocaust survivor born in 1900 in romania.

i recommend this because it doesn’t involve any money and your work can mean the difference of whether someone finds their family member or not in these records.

are there any lgbtq holidays/remberances /awareness for january and december?

i’m decorating each month on my 2022 calendar with lgbtq themes (for example, Februarys design has the colors of the aromatic flag since awareness week is that month)

This might be a bit late, but here are some important dates from January ones to start you out!

UNBELIEVABLE!

I was just listening the the news about Holocaust Remberance Day. It featured a group of very elderly Holocaust survivors. The anchor on ABC7 news from L.A. mentioned a survey that found 2/3 of millinials did not know about Auschwitz. What a terrifying revelation!

Yearly reminder please tag your Holocaust remberance day post especially ones with pictures as some of us have family that are in those pictures or are triggered by these images. Thanks.

This brought tears to my eyes and also hope .

Holocaust survivors speak to the hostages in Gaza 💔

The Jewish people are survivors and the world's hate only make's the Jewish people stronger 💪

Moshe Ridler 💔💔💔

Can you imagine surviving the Holocaust and coming to Israel your ( ancestral homeland) just to be murdered by the" new Nazis " Hamas !!

It disgusts me .

Hamas are nothing but cowards who preyed on children, the elderly ,women and innocent men .

May Moshe's memory be a blessing 🕯️

Please pray for his family 🙏

Oct 7th will NEVER be forgotten!
