A look at the messages of Margot Friedländer

Friedländer, born in Berlin in 1921, was the only survivor of her family during the Holocaust and lived in the USA for 64 years before returning to Germany. She was an urgent voice against the recurring anti -Semitism, especially in today's world, which she compares with the dark days of National Socialism. "I no longer want to be silent, but a clear attitude," she emphasized in an interview and spoke about the growing fear among Jews in Germany, especially after the Hamas attack on Israel in October 2023. Her message was clear: Humanity and respect should form the basis of every society.

The director of the Berlin Ensemble, Oliver Reese, found that it is our responsibility to continue to carry Friedländer's message and actively fight against anti -Semitism and right -wing extremist movements. Friedman criticized the superficial veneration of Friedländer and called for a serious examination of her messages, which are still of great relevance.

The evening in the Berlin Ensemble was not only a tribute to an admirable woman, but also an important reminder for society. Beate Rudolf, director of the German Institute for Human Rights, emphasized the responsibility of state and society on the occasion of the commemoration day for the victims of National Socialism, the memory of the victims.

The event underlined the need to promote education about the past and the protection of the memorials and their educational work. Memorials are places where history is made understandable and stimulates reflection. Unfortunately, they are exposed to increasing right -wing extremists. It is therefore important to pass on the importance of memory and commitment to human society in future.

Margot Friedländer remains a shining example that every generation has the task of working for the values of humanity and democracy. Their work encourages the young generation to show humanity, regardless of skin color or religion.
