EDITORIAL
30 years of the March of the Living and 25 years of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington D.C. Those two important anniversaries are reflected in the May edition of Memorial Magazine. The history, achievements and challenges of the USHMM are presented in a article by its director Sara J. Bloomfield. We also interviewed Aharon Tamir, General Director of the March of the Living.
We also present two exhibitions: about the fate of children in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp as well as very moving photographic tribute that Hannah Kozak created to commemorate her father, a Holocaust survivor.
„Returning memories stolen from Nazi victims” is a unique campaign organized by the International Tracing Service in Bad Arolsen. It helps to return artefacts stored in the Archives of ITS to families of there owners. We also present a summary of „The future of Holocaust research” conference in New York and the history of the Canadian Tailor Project.
I also encourage all our readers to co-operate with us. We would be grateful to receive information about events, projects, publications, exhibitions, conferences or research that we could write about. We also accept proposals for articles. Please do share information about this magazine with others, particularly via social media.
