The colour makes these almost unbearable to look at. But look we must. Thankyou @FacesAuschwitz for the work you do.
On 29 September 1941, a massacre was carried out by German forces during their campaign against the Soviet Union. Approximately 33,771 Jews were killed, including these girls: Mania Halef and Larisa “Larochka” Ratmanski.
Anne Frank organized a film show at home in March 1942, as Jews were no longer allowed to go to the cinema. She made these invitations with her friend Jacqueline van Maarsen. Discover the stories behind our Anne Frank Collection. ⠀ #annefrank #annefrankhouse
Happy birthday, Czeslawa. You're in my thoughts today and forever. facesofauschwitz.com/gallery/czesla…
Auschwitz camp was originally created in spring 1940 mainly as a tool of terror in German-occupied Poland. Its first prisoners were members of Polish leadership, resistance & intellectuals - people arrested for their real or potential "threat" for the Reich.
27 May 1944 | Two Jewish prisoners escaped from the #Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp: Czesław Mordowicz from Poland and Arnošt Rosin from Slovakia. Their account about extermination of Hungarian Jews was later sent to Switzerland, and then presented to the governments of the Allies.
27 May 1927 | Greek Jewish girl Dolly Florentin was born in Thessaloniki. In 1943 she was deported to #Auschwitz. She did not survive.

Ralph, may your Rest in Peace. You can finally leave all the suffering behind you. We love you and promise you that the whole world will hear your story. I'm sorry that we could not do this while you were here. Our deepest condolences to the Hakmans during this difficult time.
But we are also incredibly grateful to him, Barbara, and their family for opening their doors and trusting us. We spent an entire year working together and making plans, which allowed us to become friends. Hearing his stories brought pain and healing at the same time.
