The one thing I’ve learned from time spent in Germany is : “learn from this, learn from us – don’t do this again – nie wieder (never again).” In Berlin’s Memorial to Murdered Jews in Europe, the museum underneath offered a different approach and focused less on facts or details. Instead, the displays showed several family timelines, how individuals lived normal lives (just as they would today), and the subsequent and abrupt halt and destruction of entire families. It’s horribly frustrating to see how in recent history we’ve had this remarkable ability to annihilate one another.

Thanks again for your post, Abi.
