Has anyone heard the news yet? Leon Leyson, the youngest and last survivor of "Schindler's List," just died at age 83. This means it will be easier to forget about it as time passes. Once that happens fully, time and the worst parts of human nature will make it easier to repeat the crises that made such a reaction necessary. What should we do to stay mindful of this?

    Hello ssnyh,
    It is up to the living to keep the history alive. When Germany was taken in WWII, the allies forced many of the German citizens to go to the camps and witness the horrors. Our military took many pictures to document the atrocities so they would not be forgotten to history. We the living must continue to be vigilant.
