Tomorrow, January 27th, the world will join in the commemoration of Holocaust Remembrance Day.  You can take part in this day by going to this link on Facebook:  Yad vashem .  You can link your Facebook profile, according to Yad Vashem, to  “the name of a Holocaust victim from our Central Database of Shoah Victims’ Names. Your profile will then be posted to the wall together with the photo and name of the Holocaust victim.”

I have begun an online course in Holocaust Studies from the University of Tel Aviv in Israel.  It is a heavy study and challenging.  But, important.  How appropriate that I should begin the study the week of Holocaust Remembrance.
