I Survived The Holocaust. Merely Remembering It Is No Longer Good Enough

Excerpted:

“Never Again” is unlikely to be achieved in our lifetime but it is we who need to make an effective input towards making it happen. Each and every one of us can do something. It is essential to learn to contain our own violent impulses so that we can talk and negotiate instead of exacerbating and increasing the violence of others.

Perhaps the most poisonous factor is the toleration and cover-up of denial. Denial opens the door for others to commit crimes against humanity, as we clearly see others getting away with it. We need to enthuse and stimulate curiosity and an insistence to expose the truth. We live with so much denial that many people can no longer distinguish between misinformation, disinformation (fake news) and truth.

Denial has become so embedded in the infrastructure of our community that it feels like the norm and we don’t question it. Critical thinking is not something just for the school curriculum – it has to be for adults too. We need much more thinking in groups and think tanks, creating initiatives to hone our capabilities until potentially positive projects, such as the United Nations Association and Responsibility to Protect, emerge. Only when more people join these movements and start to take their responsibilities seriously, will we be well on the road towards eventually containing hatred and stopping genocide.
