"How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.”

97 years ago today, Anne Frank was born.

Her diary, written in hiding over two years in an Amsterdam annex, has become one of the most widely read accounts of the Holocaust.

She would be 97 today. She could have been a writer, a grandmother. Instead her life was cut short at 15, in Bergen-Belsen, just weeks before liberation.

What she left behind is barely a fraction of who she might have become. But to us, her words live on forever.

May Anne’s memory be a blessing.

In April 1943, inside Barrack #27 in Birkenau, a group of starving women risked everything to hold a secret Passover Seder.

There was no matzah. No wine. No Seder plate. They saved raisins from the clothing they were forced to sort and made their own wine. They smuggled boiled potatoes out of the kitchen. The whole time, girls kept watch at the door, because being caught could cost them their lives.

Bertha (Berkowitz) Lautman z"l was one of the 999 Slovakian women on the first official transport to Auschwitz.

She never forgot that night. In her words: "You played with your life to do something like this. But it was worth it. In the darkness we prayed for freedom."

In her later years, Bertha returned to Auschwitz many times with the March of the Living and other educational programs, going back to the very place she survived to tell her story. She even carved her name into the bunk where she once slept, still visible in Barrack #27 today.

And to this day, students stand at that same barrack and sing V'hi She'amda: in every generation, some rise up to destroy us, and in every generation, we endure.

This Shabbat, as you light your candles, remember Bertha and the many who risked everything to keep their Judaism alive.

May her memory be a blessing.

Today marks one year since the devastating terrorist attack outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C.

Catherine Szkop (29) and Abbie Talmoud (25) survived this horrific attack in which their colleagues Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim were murdered.

We were honored to have Catherine and Abbie march with us this year at the International March of the Living alongside Holocaust survivors who survived unimaginable tragedies.

During the March, Szkop turned to Holocaust survivor Allan J. Hall, a Polish-born survivor from Miami Beach, for guidance:

"I asked him if he had any advice, specifically about survivor's guilt. The first thing he said was, 'When young people come face to face with the reality of death, it's very, very traumatizing. It's unnatural. But I want you to understand that everything you're feeling is normal and valid.'"

Link to the full CNN article in the comments.

May Sarah and Yaron's memory be a blessing.

March of the Living mourns the passing of Abraham (Abe) Foxman.

Abraham was an extraordinary Jewish leader and Holocaust survivor who led the ADL for nearly three decades.

He accompanied a group of 250 ADL supporters on the 2005 March of the Living. His voice and legacy will live on through the thousands of lives he touched.

May his memory be a blessing.

81 years ago today, a baby was born at the gates of a N**i concentration camp.

That baby is Eva Clarke.

Last year she walked with us on the March of the Living alongside fellow Holocaust survivors, Merrill Eisenhower, the great-grandson of Dwight D. Eisenhower who helped liberate the camps, and thousands of participants from around the world.

Today we celebrate her.

Happy Birthday Eva! we are so lucky to have you 💙.

Statement from Scott Saunders, CEO of International March of the Living, Founder & Chairman of March of the Living UK, following the horrific antisemitic attack in London today.

A man hunting Jews in the streets of Golders Green is the reality Jewish communities are facing today.

Two people were injured in a stabbing attack that appears to have deliberately targeted Jews in one of London’s most visibly Jewish neighborhoods. This follows a surge in threats and attacks against Jewish homes, synagogues, and community spaces across the UK.

This is part of a broader pattern unfolding worldwide, with Jews being targeted in the United States, Canada, Australia, and across Europe. Public spaces are becoming points of vulnerability, and visibly Jewish individuals are increasingly at risk.

This is what happens when antisemitism is allowed to escalate in plain sight.

Jews should not have to hide who they are or change how they live in order to feel safe.

Authorities must respond with immediate and visible action — through enforcement, protection, and accountability.

The International March of the Living was founded on the principle that “Never Again” is a responsibility.

That responsibility applies here and now.

We stand with the victims and with the Jewish community in the UK and around the world.
