Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi concentration camp built on the territory of Nazi-occupied Poland. Always remember 👇
Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.
