The Holocaust

Lest we forget The face of evil And deny the truth Of history Remember the victims Who suffered and died; Tormented, persecuted, Dispossessed, taken captive, Herded like animals Into the crowded carriages And transported To the Nazi death camps. Remember them Remember them... W.A CHOLT. Copyright Fergal O Reilly. 2018. Posted on 6th September 2018.

powerfully penned W.A , we should never let anyone forget the atrocities that happened - the book and film the boy in the striped pyjamas was studied in the school i worked at and also they learned about the Holocaust in history lessons:-) hugs jan xx

For sure some things should never be forgotten or history could repeat itself...repeat itself

Thanks Kim. Uncensored history is such an important subject. It arms us with the truth and helps us avoid extremism on all sides.
