Quakers, like many others, participate in Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) each year. Taking place on 27 January (the anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp), it's a critical reminder of how division and hatred can spread, and to reinforce our commitment to prevent that.
