I never said lets forget about history, how could we forget about such a horrendous situation as the Holocaust and WWII?
BUT, there is thin line between commemoration and commercialization. As a professionally trained historian, you can remember history without necessarily preserving the worst aspects of our humanity for the world to gawk and open-mouthed..
again, I say it, the people who perpetuate these camps are bragging, even if inadvertantly, and I will pray a thanksgiving prayer the day an arsonist burns them to the ground the way they tried to get the Hollywood sign last year...
