Editors’ Remarks
As we prepare to upload the Central
Database of Shoah Victims’ Names onto the Internet this
summer, this issue—dedicated to Holocaust Remembrance Day— details
Yad Vashem’s efforts to name and memorialize every Holocaust
victim. Sixty years after the Nazis’ final push to exterminate the
Jewish people and eradicate their identities, we are opening new
avenues to members of the public who may have further information
about those who perished.
For 50 years, Yad Vashem has made
every effort to collect Pages of Testimony, photographs, works of
art and other personal artifacts of six million Jews in order to
redeem them from oblivion back into our collective memory. Yad
Vashem appeals to you—friends, supporters, survivors and
educators—to join us in remembering every last one.
