There is an interactive section on the site with the <a href="http://go.footnote.com/holocaust_stories/" rel="nofollow">pictures and stories</a> of those who died and those who survived. You can add pictures, memories, documents and stories of these individuals, so they will not be forgotten. All of the collections posted are free until the end of the year. Remembering through music, dance and the rest of the arts is a powerful way to do just that. The documentation that we have is also a powerful way to know that what happened was not just as bad, but worse than what we have imagined.<br />Thanks for the article and connected art pieces.<br /><br />The History Man<br /><br /><a href="http://www.footnote.com/page/110056803_nazi_concentration_camp_records/" rel="nofollow">Holocaust Page</a>The History Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08287622162553404278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9101859138648955033.post-45044430436276083202009-11-10T12:30:58.448-05:002009-11-10T12:30:58.448-05:00Not NWA, but the Wu-Tang Clan.

That he did it in Hebrew made it more moving to me. The video itself I found distracting. <br /><br />The rap group NWA, I believe, (they had a Jew in the group) did another hip-hop piece in English awhile ago that brought tears to my eyes. I'll try to find a web reference to it for you.Bruce Kodishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07993453727147026944noreply@blogger.com
