Stolperstein: Remembering the Holocaust and Those it Took

in #photography6 years ago

This is a photo I took in May 2012, in Berlin. It's so easy to disregard these plaques, which, to my understanding, can be found in multiple places across Europe. While I hesitate to share this photo—it refers to a sensitive and terrible subject, and this is social media—what is most important is that we NEVER FORGET. Sharing this photo is a demonstration of that pledge to never forget and bear witness. It is far too easy to walk on by...

"and when we speak we are afraid
our words will not be heard
nor welcomed
but when we are silent
we are still afraid

So it is better to speak"
—A Litany for Survival, Audre Lorde
