I got an email with this in it. Any thoughts? (If it's too small to read, just click on it and it will put it in another window, larger.)

I think this a great cartoon. It is really important to remember all that happened in the Holocaust. Now that most of the survivors are becoming older and passing away it is more now that we learn all that we can, and not only remember what happened but to teach others to remember. I think this cartoon does a fantastic job of communicating that message. This is why we shouldn't take this class for granted, because it is up to this generation to not only tell the story of the survivors, but to prevent more stories like theirs.
This is a great cartoon. I feel this cartoon does an excellent job of stressing the importance to teach the future generations of the Holocaust. It is through history that one learns from past mistakes. The Holocaust is definitely a time in history that should never be repeated again.
The goal of this blog is to start and then ultimately maintain a conversation about Holocaust education and righting injustices in today's world. An amazing Holocaust survivor once reminded me of a quote by Edmund Burke that "all it takes for evil to triumph in the world is for good men to stand by and do nothing." We are those "good men." YOU are those "good men" of the future. What are we doing? Please feel free to comment on any postings, both current and past (and even future) students!
I am so lucky to have an amazing job at the best high school in the whole world, teaching the most wonderful students (MOST days)! This is where you can hear my musings, reflections on literature, and showcase assignments.
