Great post and food for thought! Slavery and the Holocaust were the most horrible events in our history. As Russ said, these events did not happen to just one group of people...it is a crock when people do the "we had it worse than you guys"...that is BS. Both events were horrible and we need to learn from them. Those who do not learn from history are bound to repeat it!

The Holocaust should not be remembered because something bad happened to one group of people. The Holocaust should be remembered because it could happen again, and it could happen to any group of people.
