It was an honour to speak at last night's @HolocaustLearn event to launch their new film for schools about the Kindertransport. It's a wonderful film and I'd encourage all schools to show it.
Tonight our Director of Policy, @DaveRich1, delivered a talk and hosted a Q&A for @HolocaustLearn on the Holocaust, antisemitism and how we can respond to the challenges we face today.
On Holocaust Memorial Day we pay tribute to the survivors who give so much of their time to educate the younger generation. Here is the trailer for our new film “Kindertransport” for Holocaust Learning UK, available to schools and colleges free of charge. #HolocaustMemorialDay
750 Growing Up films completed! Over the last eight years we’ve been filming annual interviews with children and young people as a record of their developing personalities. It's been fascinating and we look forward to the next 750 and many more lively conversations!
It's so true @historygirl - these photographers left a great legacy

Absolutely agree - so sad we need to reinforce this every year but it’s necessary to stamp out the evil and hatred that still endures and we must
Today, let us ALL make this pledge: I will not forget. I will choose courage & act against hatred & prejudice. I will continue to learn & impart what I know to those around me, young & old, to ensure that the Holocaust is never simply a turn of a page in a history book.

On Holocaust Memorial Day, we honour and commemorate those who were murdered by the Nazis and their collaborators, and all those who have lost their lives in recent genocides. We remember those who are victims of persecution and discrimination today. #holocaustmemorialday

This survey is really distressing.
Almost 1/4 young people believe the Holocaust was a myth. 🇳🇱
Only 1/2 think acknowledging and apologising is necessary.
Unthinkable only a few years ago. Anti-semitism is rising more than it has been for decades !
Let’s keep pushing back ! ✊🏻

Deeply shocking and reinforces the need for continued education
Troubling article in today’s papers from @BrunoBrussels. Research shows there is ‘shocking and disturbing’ ignorance about the Holocaust among millennials and Generation Z in the Netherlands.
Our film, about a Dutch Holocaust survivor, is available now.

“Out of the Darkness” Steven’s Story” follows the journey of a young Amsterdam boy and his family when the Nazis occupied Holland in 1941. After wondering for many years why he survived when so many others didn’t, Steven realised it was so that he could tell his story.
A little girl alone, having lost her parents and brother, hidden, living in a bunker, working as a maid at the age of twelve - “Out of the Darkness: Janine’s Story”, tells the story of the inspirational Holocaust survivor Janine Webber. #holocaustmemorialday

Saddened to hear of the passing of our friend Zigi Shipper. Zigi was a stalwart of our events with schools and was a hugely popular speaker with both students and teachers. He will be missed. May his memory be a blessing.
"He was a man with wonderful, wonderful energy and humanity, and I pay tribute to him for his work... We must never forget the Holocaust"
Prime Minister @RishiSunak has lead tributes to Zigi Shipper in the House of Commons after @BobBlackman informed MPs of his passing.
Our "Out of the Darkness" films for Holocaust Learning UK are free for schools to stream throughout the year, and are particularly relevant for Holocaust Memorial Day on 27th January.
To register to screen the films, please get in touch with us, or go to ow.ly/WYbU50MrWxA
The extraordinary Ruth Finnegan, FBA OBE, anthropologist and novelist, Open University Emeritus Professor and Honorary Fellow of Somerville College Oxford, looks back to her time as an undergraduate. #RuthFinnegan #SomervilleCollegeOxford
Bernie explains why he was keen to make a film for future generations to understand where their family came from.

Powerful statement by @BobBlackman in the House of Commons today, on the anniversary of Kristallnacht. Always important to remember and celebrate the work of all our wonderful survivors who continue to educate the younger generations.

Here's the trailer to our new film for @HolocaustLearn, "Out of the Darkness: Steven's film", about a young Dutch boy's experience during the Nazi occupation. Thanks to the inspiration of Steven Frank, @jasonsfolly for narrating, and HLUK's vital work - "What would you do?"

On this momentous day, don't forget to talk to your older friends and relatives about what they were doing on this day 70 years ago - They will enjoy reliving the memories, and you will doubtless learn something new about them, and about that historic day. @memories
