International Holocaust Remembrance Day is Jan. 27. You can learn more about it @ You can learn more about it @ Yadvashem.org

"Yad Vashem, Jerusalem, is the Jewish people’s memorial to the murdered Six Million and symbolizes the ongoing confrontation with the rupture engendered by the Holocaust. Containing the world’s largest repository of information on the Holocaust, Yad Vashem is a leader in Shoah education, commemoration, research and documentation."

If anyone has ever had the chance to visit the Monument to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin, it's a powerful reminder. A whole block of downtown Berlin, right next to the Brandenburg gate, probably the most expensive land in Germany, is filled with varying heights of concrete "pillars" for lack of a better term. It's like a field of the things, and as you walk into them, they get higher and higher, covering your head and closing in from all sides, supposed to mimic the feeling of entrapment and impending doom that the Jews would have felt under the Hitler regime. Very powerful, and very cool.

I've got a couple of photos of it up: here and here.
