6 million Jews murdered along with millions of others including LGBTQ, gypsies, the disabled, and Catholics, by the Nazis. 

it starts with “othering” and denying the humanity of another. it’s starts with speech, with scapegoating rhetoric, and propaganda.

there is a rise in Nazism and authoritarian ideology, a rise in anti-Semitic hate crimes, along with hate crimes targeting other communities, in speech and action. 

it is vitally important that we commit our hearts, minds, our words and action to calling out and pushing back against such hate and delusion.

never forget. never again.

may our love be resilient and steadfast, and our compassion fierce, in these times.

may hearts open, may sanity arise.
