Holocaust

[maggiebee]

I was reading a thread earlier about this but can't find it now! Just a reminder that there is a programme on BBC1 tonight at 10.25pm called Prisoner Number A26188: Henia Bryder. This was discussed on the radio earlier in the week and was classed as a "not to be missed 40 mins". The blurb says "a Jewish woman recalls how she lost her father, brother and sister during the Second World War, survived four concentration camps and went on to bear witness to the birth of Israel." I'll certainly be watching.

Thanks maggiebee. I've set it to record.

Looks like there will be at least four people watching it as my wife and I will be.

I too will be watching. It should be shown in schools, especially to the people who say that the holocaust never happened. Hopefully then, it will never happen again.

I'll have to put it on to record. I think it is an important thing that people realise the horror which can be difficult to imagine these days.

The Imperial War Museum here is great for going and reflecting on things and learning about what went on.

I would like to go back to Anne Frank's house if I get back to Amsterdam again, spend more time there. Unfortunately I went with my ex who wasn't really interested (and had never heard of her until I explained!).
