On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the loss of 6 million Jews and the more than 27,000 non-Jews, known as the Righteous Among the Nations, who risked their lives to save Jews from the Nazis and their collaborators.
On January 23, we stood together with united resolve in the face of history’s greatest horror, the Holocaust, at the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp where more than 1 million Jews perished. Never Again. Not for Jews. Not for Muslims. Not for any of God’s children.
Esta semana tuvo lugar el Día Internacional de Conmemoración del Holocausto, fecha en la que se recuerda a los 6 millones de judíos asesinados durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Pero también es una ocasión para reconocer y honrar a los miles de no judíos que arriesgaron sus vidas para ayudar a salvar a las víctimas de la persecución y los crímenes por parte de los nazis y sus colaboradores.
To stop antisemitism, we first have to understand it. By calling it out online and in the real world, we can recognize antisemitic words, phrases, ideas, and caricatures for what they really are—hatred, bigotry, discrimination. Together, we can identify and expose the hate that’s hiding between the lines and translate it into something positive. Translate Hate.
The IHRA Working Definition is a clear and compact description of antisemitism in its various forms, including Holocaust denial, prejudices against Jews, and the denial of Israel’s right to exist.
