@KingsAtWestern Today and always, King’s honours the Holocaust victims and stands against antisemitism and racism. I am proud to serve on the Committee on Ethics, Religion, and the Holocaust at the @HolocaustMuseum, and advising on education and research in this vital history.

[King's President @KingsPres]

Holocaust education is crucial for promoting understanding and combatting intolerance and hate. At @KingsAtWestern, we offer opportunities for in-depth study of the Holocaust's origins, events, and its impact on human rights globally.

[King's President @KingsPres]

Today we honour International Holocaust Remembrance Day, marking the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau.

We remember the 6 million Jewish victims and millions of others persecuted under Nazism, including persons with disabilities and LGBTQ+ persons.
