We love ourselves too often and need reach out much more often. It is a social responsibility and it effects the environment also.
International Holocaust Remembrance Day Share January 27 The United Nations General Assembly designated January 27—the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau—as International Holocaust Remembrance Day, a time to remember the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and the millions of other victims of Nazi persecution. As we are witnessing an alarming rise of antisemitism around the globe, it is more important than ever for us to recognize the critical lessons of Holocaust history as we commemorate the victims and honor the survivors. How to Mark the Day At the Museum and other commemoration sites, we remember Holocaust victims by reading their names, by lighting candles, and by learning about the Holocaust. All of us can mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day by sharing the truth of the Holocaust and by confronting antisemitism and hate in our daily lives. Follow the Museum on Instagram to learn more about the experiences of Holocaust victims and survivors.
Rep. Riley M. Moore @RepRileyMoore Today, we remember the six million Jewish lives that were brutally stolen in the Holocaust, along with millions of other souls who perished at the Nazi’s hands. Eternal rest grant unto them, o Lord, and may perpetual light shine upon them.
Efforts to Help and Combat Antisemitism Government Action: In 2025, the U.S. government announced the formation of a Justice Department Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism to investigate incidents in schools and colleges. Legislation: Proposals like the Antisemitism Awareness Act of 2025 aim to use the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism in federal investigations. Education: Many initiatives focus on increasing Holocaust education in schools to combat misconceptions. Security Upgrades: Increased funding for security grants to protect Jewish institutions (synagogues, schools) has been implemented due to high threats.
