On this International Holocaust Remembrance Day — which marks the 80th anniversary of the 1945 liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau — we honor the memory of the 6 million Jews and the millions of Roma, Sinti, Slavs, disabled persons, LGBTQ+ individuals, political dissidents and others who were murdered in the Holocaust. The world lost the perspectives and contributions of millions of individuals because of hate.
Every child in the United States has a right to an equitable (fair and just) public education. With education currently under assault from the current administration, we all have a responsibility to advocate for inclusive public schools in which all children are supported.
