This Twitter Account Memorializes the Passengers of the St. Louis, Who Were Denied Entry to the U.S. and Murdered by Nazis – Tablet Magazine

Twitter has its uses and misuses but this type of use of technology is definitely on a Do list. One of the most important things about remembering the Holocaust is the fact that it’s hard to humanize those who have been gone for seventy years and with Twitter sending out regular messages about faces and stories does a magnificent job reminding the world about the humanity of the victims.

What a powerfully painful read. I read The Black Book he references as a teenager in Russian, in fact I chose to bring it with me when we immigrated and it still resides on my desk. My father’s family is both the survivors and the victims of the Nazis in Soviet Ukraine so to me this is a particularly poignant read.
