Holocaust Memorial Day

Today is Holocaust Memorial Day.
I just wanted to draw people's attention to this and post a few links about some of the events that have been held here as part of the day.

"The Day offers the opportunity to remember victims of the Holocaust and more recent atrocities and foster the values of tolerance and diversity."

cow-- your angry face doesn't go with the post.

thanks for reminding me of this. we used to have students read the names of holocaust victims on campus for this week. always a reminder that we should remember the past so we don't repeat it.
