Thank you for your interest in participating in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum’s annual Days of Remembrance commemoration. It will take place on the Museum’s Facebook Live channel. You do not need a Facebook account to participate.

Every year, the nation comes together to remember the victims of the Holocaust, honor the survivors, and pay tribute to the liberators during annual Days of Remembrance. While COVID-19 might keep us apart this year, please join the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum for a virtual commemoration as they reaffirm a commitment to keep the memory of the Holocaust alive.

This year’s event features Holocaust survivors’ tributes to family members they lost, a stirring message from Benjamin Ferencz (the last living Nuremberg prosecutor), and timeless words from the late Elie Wiesel. The program will close with an opportunity for each one of us to make a personal pledge to safeguard the survivors’ legacy. In honor of the victims, the Museum will ask you to join them in reading a name during these Days of Remembrance.

USHMM looks forward to hosting you virtually for this commemoration. Until then, you are encouraged to learn more about why we remember.
