At Auschwitz we see the end of the long process. It's important to remember that the Holocaust did not start from gas chambers & murder.
The hatred slowly developed from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice, through legal exclusion, escalating violence & dehumanization.
My great-grandparents tragically perished at Auschwitz.

Quoted @UNESCO
The Holocaust began with words - and in the era of the internet and social media, the power of propaganda is more devastating than ever.
But education & knowledge can help prevent genocide.
27 January is International #HolocaustRemembrance Day
It all began with words.
Speak out against racism and bullying. Be inclusive, welcoming and open minded. Always. Every day.

On #HolocaustRemembranceDay we say never again.

The Holocaust is not a myth and we must #ProtectTheFacts.
Travel. This is the truth and nothing else. Read where on my travels I felt threatened.
