   A "stumbling stone" marker in the pavement reminding today's inhabitants of my town that neighbours were deported and murdered under their predecessor's eyes, on their watch. #HolocaustRemembranceDay.

   Ruth Olschowski was 40 when she was deported and murdered in Auschwitz, as was her son Hans-Peter. Both had been separately living in hiding until then, hoping to escape.

   As @afelia reminded everybody, the Shoah did not begin with gas chambers.

   Be vocal. #NeverAgain
