Holocaust Memorial Day: Why Do We Commemorate?

Today, Thursday 27 January, is Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD), where we remember the millions of those who died in the Holocaust and subsequent genocides, the many more who were, and are still affected by it. In partnership with Imperial War Museums, we are launching a project that will span the course of a year, to HMD 2023. We asked our Creative Activists (local young people, Jewish and non-Jewish) "Why is important to remember and commemorate the Holocaust?" In response they created this powerful and poignant poem and film, inspired by the stories in our collection. The aim of our Holocaust Memorial Day project, in partnership with Imperial War Museums, is to uncover hidden stories of the Holocaust, and to work with young people to explore how we continue to mark HMD, and how, with fewer living survivors each year, exploring how we make sure that ‘Never Again’ is more than just words without their powerful testimony.
