Never again means never again, anywhere, to anyone. This day should remind us of a commitment to ending genocide across the world.
On this 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, I am sharing these photos I took when I visited 11 years ago. What happened there is almost beyond comprehension. It must never be allowed to happen again. #Auschwitz80 #HolocaustMemorialDay pic.twitter.com/HlsLdGuY5G

#HolocaustMemorialDay Went to Auschwitz for the 75th Anniversary to pay my respects. It’s 80 years on now since that atrocity. How come we are still battling prejudice, racism & hatred in this world! The reality is, it won’t stop anytime soon. pic.twitter.com/9SbfGotfhG

80 years ago Auschwitz was liberated. More than one million children, women and men were murdered there as part of the Holocaust. A dark lesson of history; humanity owes it to each of the victims to ensure it will never happen again. #HolocaustMemorialDay pic.twitter.com/0NbOWu3HDb
