Here are just a few of the reasons why Holocaust remembrance is so important and how you and your family can benefit from it.
One of the best ways to learn about what happened during the Holocaust is through personal stories. There are a variety of resources available that adults and young people can use to find out what happened to individuals during the second world war. Many survivors have spoken of what it was like to be taken to the camps and what happened to their friends and family. Reading or listening to these stories gives people in the modern world insight into the persecution that was suffered. Retelling the stories means that the lessons learned from them will be passed down through the generations.
Holocaust remembrance is important on a global scale. Those who work to teach others and help them remember the Holocaust want to use what happened at that time as a way to make sure nothing like that ever happens again in the future.
