(Jewish Group) Stickers & posters described as anti-Semitic found at suburban NY Holocaust memorial
Stickers and posters described as hateful and anti-Semitic were discovered at a Holocaust memorial in suburban New York on the eve of Yom Kippur.
The material was found Tuesday at the Holocaust Garden of Remembrance in White Plains, in Westchester County. Writing described as anti-Semitic also was found on a sign outside the garden and inside the park as well, WABC-TV reported.
The Garden of Remembrance, created by the Holocaust and Human Rights Education Center, was dedicated in 1992.
