Holocaust Remembrance Day
19 April 2012
“On April 19, people all over the world will commemorate Yom Ha'Shoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day. In Judaism, when we remember the dead we say "zikron l'vrach"-- may their memory be for a blessing. On this day, we stand united against one of the most sinister and evil chapters of history, scarred by the unthinkable deeds of governments and collaborators and the silence of so many.”
- Hannah Rosenthal, Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism
