(36,899 posts)The Holocaust occurred because individuals, organizations, and governments allowed prejudice, hatred, and even mass murder to occur. Young people, you can create a new way forward, Wagner said. You can be the change makers who create a world of unity, respect and tolerance.
In 1976, Wagner spoke to students who were performing the same play. Since then, the school said she has come back to speak whenever possible.
Her message to students: Love is always stronger than hate.

A deeply moving show of solidarity
When I was a young teen ('60's) I lived in a majority Jewish neighborhood. Was Catholic.
On one visit to a friend's house her mom showed us the small blue numbers tattooed on her wrist. Chilling.
Stay safe and healthy, Joyce Wagner!
