Today at City Hall, we remembered the millions of lives lost and affected by the Holocaust, along with the victims and survivors of all genocides around the world. As we reflect on the past, we must pledge to work together and live up to the promise: never again. pic.twitter.com/OzFl0qmGc7— Sadiq Khan (@SadiqKhan) 21 gennaio 2019

Today at school and also in other places we are working on remembering what happened in Auschwitz. Many have died while others cannot live any longer. They are too old to remind us that we cannot forget.
I watched GIULIANA SEGRE who is now sitting in the Italian Parliament and was sent to concentration camps , she had left from Milan in Italy. She started to talk about Auschwitz when she was 60 and she is continuing doing it now.
She said that we do need to remember what happened in the many places where many people were killed.
Thank you to this great woman who is talking to us, among men who are denying what she had experienced and are working to build barriers while we should open our mind to the world.
This was an insightful post! Sometimes we all need to slow down and take the time to remember all of those who made sacrifices before us! It's important to not lose touch with the past, as we work to embrace our future.
RispondiEliminaThanks to you. I wish everybody should slow down as life is short and many died because some people did not care. I still cannot accept the idea that the holocaust happened in the heart of Europe and in a country where Art, Music and Philosophy were taught. When I visited Buchenwald and Auschwitz I realized that too many are forgetting our past. In Europe many people are becoming aggressive and they do not respect diversity.
