Update: New relevant story from holocaust survivor. I cannot believe people are denying the holocaust happened! Here is a true story by a Jewish man in a concentration camp and an American GI that couldn't believe what they saw when they arrived there. http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5gNU2z0ALtg7gs8MxA6H9FgmxEsNA?docId=2dffc927b68748cab92f2e941b99ab44

 

I read a disturbing article in The Washington Post . To say I am outraged would be a gross understatement. The article is ‘Taking Anne Frank Off Shelves: Indefensible‘ http://voices.washingtonpost.com/answer-sheet/literature/taking-anne-frank-off-shelves.html and I was horrified as I read it. There was no reason to do this and it is indefensible! 

This is a very historically poignant week. That is the reason for this podcast. It is Holocaust Remembrance Week and I will not ever forget!

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. George Santayana
